Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Bath repair at your home in Pot Bank
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are impact holes in acrylic and chips on the rim or sides.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- 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 following day.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice
Do you need bath repair in Pot Bank?
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Clients usually contact us about:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Chips under the taps
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How to care for the finish
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How changes to the job are handled

Should you replace it?

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Pot Bank. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Pot Bank: your questions answered
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Pot Bank.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Are there extra charges for Pot Bank?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A steel bath rusted through
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
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.

What else we do in Pot Bank
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
