What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Signs you need bath repair in Sower Carr
A cracked acrylic bath typically wasn’t supported properly. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until it cracks.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Chips under the taps
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.

The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
