About our bath repair in Whissonsett
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are a cracked acrylic bath and chips caused by builders.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
How it works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

When to call us in Whissonsett
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- A chip where the taps sit
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A chipped rim or side
Questions to ask before you book
- What aftercare is recommended
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How changes to the job are handled
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Your questions about bath repair in Whissonsett
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Are there extra charges for Whissonsett?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.
Repair or replace: which is better?
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Whissonsett. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- One price list for the whole UK
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
