What a repair cannot fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
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, which makes it well worth repairing.
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repair or replace: which is better?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Common problems we fix in Woodville
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Snagging damage from a refit
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Damage beneath the taps
Comparing quotes
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- If travel is included in the price
- How the colour is matched
- How soon you can use it again
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
