Bath repair at your home in Redbrook
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. If you are dealing with holes from dropped items and a chipped rim or side, we can normally put it right, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic alike.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the entire bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Redbrook questions
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
Do you need bath repair in Redbrook?
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Holes from dropped items
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A chip where the taps sit
