Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
