About our bath repair in Rushop
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Our technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are a chipped rim or side and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Repair or replace in Rushop?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Do you need bath repair in Rushop?
Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A chipped rim or side
- Damage beneath the taps
- Rusty patches near the plughole

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Your questions about bath repair in Rushop
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Derbyshire.
How invisible is a bath repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you come to Rushop?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Rushop and the rest of Derbyshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you cover the whole of Derbyshire?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Rushop. Our prices are the same everywhere.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Rushop. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Details of any past repairs

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
