Bath repair at your home in Rabbit's Cross
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. Whether it’s chips along the edge of the bath and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic alike.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Do you need bath repair in Rabbit's Cross?
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips under the taps
- Chips caused by builders

Landlords, agents and businesses in Rabbit's Cross
For anyone letting property in or around Rabbit's Cross, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What else we do in Rabbit's Cross
What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
