A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Chips caused by builders
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A cracked acrylic bath
What to look for in a quote
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What prep work is covered
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Bath repair in Roughmussel without replacing anything

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Repairing versus replacing in Roughmussel
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
Read our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
Repairs by material
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 repair chips early.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Roughmussel as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

Questions from Roughmussel
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Roughmussel.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
