Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

South Down questions
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you come to South Down?
We do. Technicians travel to South Down from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Do you need bath repair in South Down?
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Rust spots around the plughole

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
