Repair or replace in Shipton Green?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?

When to call us in Shipton Green
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A chipped rim or side
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if they find more damage
How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Shipton Green. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
Your questions about bath repair in Shipton Green
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you come to Shipton Green?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Shipton Green. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
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 picture.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
