Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Bath repair in Well Street, done in place
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can typically use the bath the next day. We’re frequently asked to fix scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a cracked acrylic bath, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Well Street questions
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Typically, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Are there extra charges for Well Street?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we will tell you what to expect.
When to call us in Well Street
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips under the taps
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
