DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
About our bath repair in Ward Green Cross
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Typical jobs include scratches you can feel with a fingernail and chips caused by builders, across pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What affects the price in Ward Green Cross
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

How to get a fixed quote

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Do you need bath repair in Ward Green Cross?
A cracked acrylic bath typically wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
Questions to ask before you book

How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, tidy-up included.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- 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 next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Have new chips seen to early
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
