Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Bath repair in Smithstone, done in place
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Whether it’s an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and chips under the taps, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Smithstone questions
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Smithstone?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Will the repair last?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
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.
Signs you need bath repair in Smithstone
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, often before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Holes from dropped items
- Chips along the edge of the bath

- What happens if they find more damage
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
