Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
About our bath repair in Thornton Curtis
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are holes from dropped items and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Common questions in Thornton Curtis
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

When to call us in Thornton Curtis
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until the acrylic gives way.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips caused by builders
- A chip where the taps sit
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Thornton Curtis, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
