Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Have new chips seen to early
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Do not 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.
Bath repair in Skye Green without replacing anything
We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are hairline or through cracks in acrylic and chips caused by builders.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Do you need bath repair in Skye Green?
Rust normally 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.

FAQs for Skye Green
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Do you come to Skye Green?
We do. We send a technician to Skye Green for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, tidy-up included.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CO5 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel 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
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
