Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
How we handle bath repair in Roddam
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. We work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and people most frequently call us about impact holes in acrylic and snagging damage from a refit.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Roddam. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Questions from Roddam
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.
How much does bath repair cost in Roddam?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A steel bath rusted through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Roddam
- Cast iron enamel

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Roddam, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
