Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Store metal items away from the bath
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Do you need bath repair in Raunds?
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- A chipped rim or side
- Snagging damage from a refit

- How to care for the finish

Repair or replace: which is better?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
