Repairs by material
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.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Should you replace it?
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’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Why book with us
- Work done at your home or business
- One visit for most repairs
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Fixed prices from your pictures

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The type of damage
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
When to call us in Ruabon
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips along the edge of the bath

Ruabon questions
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
