Bath repair across BH19: what to expect
We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about chips on the rim or sides and a cracked acrylic bath.
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- 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 day after.
Prices in BH19
Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- We leave the room as we found it
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Repair or replace?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit.

Common problems we fix in BH19
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A chipped rim or side
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Rinse it down after each bath
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
What affects the price in BH19
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Questions from BH19
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
