Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. 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. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Bath repair in West Heath without replacing anything
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Typical jobs include rust spots around the plughole and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in West Heath, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Rinse it down after each bath
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

West Heath: your questions answered
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DA7 postcode.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes West Heath. Prices don’t change with location.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Signs you need bath repair in West Heath
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips under the taps
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A hole punched through by something heavy
Questions to ask before booking
- Aftercare advice
- When it can be used again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 typically cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes two to three hours for most chips. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
