Bath repair at your home in Ruardean Hill
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. We work on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about rust by the waste and overflow and impact holes in acrylic.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
Common problems we fix in Ruardean Hill
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A chipped rim or side
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Cracks in an acrylic bath

Ruardean Hill questions
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Ruardean Hill?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Often, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Typically, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- A fixed quote before you book
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Normally one visit, start to finish

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
