Bath repair at your home in The Square
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the next day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Whether it’s chips caused by builders and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can generally put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we are called out for in The Square
Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Chips caused by builders
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- If travel is included in the price
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What prep work is covered
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Questions from The Square
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Typically, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
What your bath is made of matters
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
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Repairing versus replacing in The Square
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One price list for the entire UK

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
