Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
About our bath repair in Pontlottyn
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles aren’t touched, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. We work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are scuffs and scratches in the surface and rust by the waste and overflow.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Common questions in Pontlottyn
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Related advice
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
When to call us in Pontlottyn
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips caused by builders
- A kit repair that didn’t last
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- How to look after the finish
- What preparation is included
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Pontlottyn, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
