Bath repair in Whiting Bay without replacing anything
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Whether it’s a hole punched through by something heavy and chips on the rim or sides, we can typically put it right.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Whiting Bay questions
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Are there extra charges for Whiting Bay?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will the repair last?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Normally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Should you replace it?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
When to call us in Whiting Bay
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rust spots around the plughole
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if they find more damage

What else we do in Whiting Bay
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
