Repairing versus replacing in West Town
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What else we do in West Town
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The process
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take two to three hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and 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.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
If you’re in West Town and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Questions from West Town
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
