Bath repair at your home in Wortham Ling
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Whether it’s chips caused by builders and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, we can usually put it right, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can

When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Wortham Ling

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
If you manage property in Wortham Ling, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

FAQs for Wortham Ling
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is my repair covered?

Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Normally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Repair or replace in Wortham Ling?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
