You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. Whether it’s rust spots around the plughole and damage beneath the taps, we can typically put it right.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Landlords, agents and businesses in The Rigg
For anyone letting property in or around The Rigg, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.

- Scuffs and scratches in the surface

Should you replace it?
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 fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire bath
- Natural light rather than flash
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in The Rigg, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
