A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can normally bathe again the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. If you are dealing with damage beneath the taps and a chipped rim or side, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you are in Upgate Street and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we are called out for in Upgate Street
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether they match the colour on site

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
