Bath repair across CH66: what to expect

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the day after. Common call-outs are for chips on the rim or sides and snagging damage from a refit, on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

Whether we combine several jobs
How hard the colour is to match
Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
How many areas need work

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

Any details about the material
Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A close-up of the damage, in focus
Natural light rather than flash

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Signs you need bath repair

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

Snagging damage from a refit
Damage beneath the taps
Impact holes in acrylic
A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

Metal that has corroded all the way through
A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

FAQs for CH66

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
