How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

What affects the price in Wood Burcote
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most clients in Wood Burcote get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
Signs you need bath repair in Wood Burcote
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
People generally call us after spotting one of these:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips under the taps
- Holes from dropped items
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- When it can be used again
- How the room is protected while they work
- What happens if they find more damage

Repair or replace: which is better?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Wood Burcote: your questions answered
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How long before I can use the bath?
Typically the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
