How we handle bath repair in Roxton
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, mixing the colour on the day. We regularly repair acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and chips along the edge of the bath.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Roxton. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For a price in Roxton, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A steel bath rusted through
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
Signs you need bath repair in Roxton
Rust normally 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.
Common reasons people in Roxton contact us are:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Holes from dropped items
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
Questions to ask before you book
- What aftercare is recommended
- If travel is included in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the colour is mixed to match

What else we do in Roxton
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We leave the room clean.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Repairs by material
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, so it’s always worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
