Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Have new chips seen to early
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
