Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Common questions in The Grange
How do I get a price for bath repair in The Grange?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Will the repair last?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are there extra charges for The Grange?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What else we do in The Grange
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for The Grange. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
If you’re in The Grange and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What we’re called out for in The Grange
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Look out for any of the following:
- Chips under the taps
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips caused by builders
What your quote should include
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Aftercare advice
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether they match the colour on site

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
