What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
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.
Bath repair at your home in Syston
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about chips caused by builders and cracks in an acrylic bath.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

Your questions about bath repair in Syston
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you work in Syston?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Syston and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
When we would advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
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.
Signs you need bath repair in Syston
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips under the taps

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Ensure the area is dry
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
