How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What your bath is made of matters
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’s the part we put right.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

FAQs for Woodrow
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
How much does bath repair cost in Woodrow?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Woodrow is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Do you come to Woodrow?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Woodrow and the rest of Worcestershire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Repairing versus replacing in Woodrow
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Woodrow
- No need to remove anything
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
Take a look at our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
