Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 typically the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Questions from Winksley
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Normally. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check the damage against your photos 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.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Fixed prices from your pictures
See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A steel bath rusted through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
