Repair or replace in Winkhill?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Normally it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it.

Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
See our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Questions from Winkhill
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Winkhill included. Travel is included in the price.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you need bath repair in Winkhill?
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Clients normally contact us about:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- Aftercare advice
- How the colour is matched
- How changes to the job are handled
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, 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.
