DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- 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.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Twelve Oaks. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us

What bath repair costs

Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material

Do you need bath repair in Twelve Oaks?
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Damage beneath the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- How to care for the finish
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Store metal items away from the bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
