Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
When to call us in Tomperrow
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Customers normally contact us about:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Holes from dropped items
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips along the edge of the bath

Questions from Tomperrow
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TR3 postcode.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A steel bath rusted through
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
