What bath repair costs

Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
When to call us in Sarratt
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A chip where the taps sit
What to look for in a quote

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Common questions in Sarratt
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Sarratt included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do you cover Sarratt?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Sarratt and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How do I book?

What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- 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 apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
