What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Common problems we fix in Welwyn
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting

Your questions about bath repair in Welwyn
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Do you cover Welwyn?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Welwyn and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Welwyn?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you’re in Welwyn and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
