Bath repair at your home in Routh
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. If you’re dealing with holes from dropped items and scuffs and scratches in the surface, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel

Landlord and trade work in Routh
Builders use us to fix snagging 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.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Routh use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.
- 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 mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

When to call us in Routh
Rust generally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
People usually call us after spotting one of these:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips caused by builders

Can I fix it myself?
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
