About our bath repair in Whissendine
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and people most often call us about a hole punched through by something heavy and a chip where the taps sit.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Whissendine and across Rutland.

What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- 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.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Questions from Whissendine
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Rutland.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you work in Whissendine?

When can I have a bath again?
Typically within a day, depending on the repair.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
Why repair rather than replace?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- No need to remove anything
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- We leave the room as we found it

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole bath
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Have new chips seen to early
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
