Bath repair across CB10: what to expect
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are damage beneath the taps and impact holes in acrylic.
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
What you will pay
Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- 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 pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves 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.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if they find more damage
- What preparation is included
- Whether the price covers travel
How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Your questions about bath repair in CB10
How long before I can use the bath?
Typically the following day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Do you work in CB10?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to CB10 from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
