How bath repair works in B9
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We’re often asked to fix a cracked acrylic bath and chips caused by builders, on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- 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.
Cost
Our bath repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Store metal items away from the bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Landlord and trade work in B9
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
How we price bath repair

- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Questions from B9
How much does bath repair cost in B9?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Normally. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
