Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Colour-matched on site

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Rinse it down after each bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t 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 are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Smithy Green questions

What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
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.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
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 normally the cheaper route.
