Bath repair at your home in Rope
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can usually use the bath the following day. Our technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a chip where the taps sit.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
Do you need bath repair in Rope?
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A kit repair that didn’t last

Should you replace it?
Replacing a fitted bath generally means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why Rope clients choose us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- No need to remove anything
- Work done at your home or business

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Rinse it down after each bath
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
