- A kit repair that didn’t last
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Have new chips seen to early
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Bath repair at your home in Purbrook
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. If you’re dealing with rust spots around the plughole and snagging damage from a refit, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price

Advice
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
When to call us in Purbrook
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:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Chips caused by builders
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
Comparing quotes
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

What else we do in Purbrook
Purbrook: your questions answered
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Purbrook included. Travel is included in the price.
Are there extra charges for Purbrook?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Repair or replace: which is better?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Generally it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
