Bath repair at your home in South Wingfield
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can usually bathe again the following day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. If you are dealing with a chipped rim or side and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the day after.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repairing versus replacing in South Wingfield
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Questions from South Wingfield
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do you come to South Wingfield?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to South Wingfield and the rest of Derbyshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel

Common problems we fix in South Wingfield
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Impact holes in acrylic
