About our bath repair in Rowthorne
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. If you are dealing with rusty patches near the plughole and chips under the taps, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Derbyshire.

Repairing versus replacing in Rowthorne
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Rowthorne. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Common problems we fix in Rowthorne
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips caused by builders
- A chip where the taps sit
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How the room is protected while they work
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
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 will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Rowthorne, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
