Bath repair in Withermarsh Green without replacing anything
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. We’re frequently asked to fix chips under the taps and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, across acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
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 generally the cheaper route.
Repairing versus replacing in Withermarsh Green
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- We leave the room as we found it
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Work done at your home or business

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Do you need bath repair in Withermarsh Green?
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips under the taps
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A chipped rim or side
- Snagging damage from a refit
Questions to ask before booking
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How the room is protected while they work
- What aftercare is recommended
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
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.

How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- 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 next day.
Before we arrive

- Keep a parking space free if you can
