How bath repair works in CH32
We’ve repaired just about every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. Each is repaired in place with a one-year guarantee. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about chips on the rim or sides and a cracked acrylic bath.
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Cost
Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Open spaces near Port Sunlight include Princes Park lake and Bidston Hill.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Have new chips seen to early
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
What affects the price in CH32
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Questions from CH32
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
When can I have a bath again?
Usually within a day, depending on the repair.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
