Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours.
- First, we check the damage against your photos 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.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Signs you need bath repair in Sinkhurst Green
Rust usually starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Customers typically contact us about:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A chip where the taps sit
- Impact holes in acrylic
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What aftercare is recommended
- How changes to the job are handled
- What protection goes down before work starts
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- One price list for the whole UK
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

When we would advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Metal that has corroded all the way through

Your questions about bath repair in Sinkhurst Green
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
