Bath repair across CA18: what to expect
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the following day. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people contact us are hairline or through cracks in acrylic and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- 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.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the following day.
What it costs in CA18
Our bath repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Local landmarks in Ravenglass
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to The Ratty Arms and St Michael's Church, among other places. There’s a railway station in Ravenglass itself: Ravenglass for Eskdale station. Other landmarks nearby include Muncaster Castle (1.2 miles east). The countryside around Ravenglass includes Irton Pike and Muncaster Tarn.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Repairing versus replacing
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that.

Honest limits
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to CA18. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Common questions in CA18
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
