Should you replace it?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why book with us
- Colour-matched on site
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Signs you need bath repair in Spon End
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Common reasons people in Spon End contact us include:
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Rust spots around the plughole
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Aftercare advice
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
