Bath Repair for Sheriff Hill homes
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths at your home in Sheriff Hill, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- A chip where the taps sit
- A hole punched through by something heavy
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
How we handle bath repair in Sheriff Hill
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Whether it’s a cracked acrylic bath and a chipped rim or side, we can help, on acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

Materials we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: 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.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Sheriff Hill, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Sheriff Hill questions
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How much does bath repair cost in Sheriff Hill?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- 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 following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
