Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
How we handle bath repair in Tydd St Giles
Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. Typical jobs include rust spots around the plughole and snagging damage from a refit, in pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What we are called out for in Tydd St Giles
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, often before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- A chip where the taps sit
- Holes from dropped items
- Rust by the waste and overflow
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- Who will actually do the work
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
When a repair is not the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A steel bath rusted through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths

Should you replace it?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Usually it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Work done at your home or business
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- A fixed quote before booking
See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We leave the room clean.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access

Advice
Tydd St Giles questions
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PE13 postcode.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
