- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Bath repair in Ridge Hill, done in place
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. If you’re dealing with chips along the edge of the bath and chips under the taps, we can help, on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Ridge Hill and across Dudley.

The process
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can

When to call us in Ridge Hill
Rust usually starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A chipped rim or side
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips under the taps
What to look for in a quote
- How your room will be protected
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How to care for the finish
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ridge Hill. What changes the price is:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Have new chips seen to early
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
