Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PE12 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A steel bath rusted through
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should you replace it?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
