Bath repair in Rawcliffe without replacing anything
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. We’re often asked to fix chips along the edge of the bath and holes from dropped items, across whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Common problems we fix in Rawcliffe
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Damage beneath the taps
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A steel bath rusted through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Rawcliffe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
