About our bath repair in Pitkerro
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. If you are dealing with damage beneath the taps and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, we can typically put it right, on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Pitkerro. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- One picture of the entire bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DD4 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Common problems we fix in Pitkerro
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Common reasons people in Pitkerro contact us are:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How to care for the finish
- Whether the price covers travel
- What protection goes down before work starts
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
