Repairs by material
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Bath repair at your home in Tatsfield
We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are chips under the taps and impact holes in acrylic.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Tatsfield: your questions answered
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes two to three hours for most chips. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Work done at your home or business
- One visit for most repairs

What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What we’re called out for in Tatsfield
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A chipped rim or side
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A chip where the taps sit
- Impact holes in acrylic
Before booking anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if they find more damage
- When it can be used again
- What preparation is included
What affects the price in Tatsfield
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.
