Bath repair at your home in CM0

You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. Common call-outs are for chips along the edge of the bath and scuffs and scratches in the surface, on acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

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 it costs in CM0

Our bath repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to CM0. The price comes down to:

Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The size and number of damaged areas
The colour and finish to match
What kind of damage it is

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

The postcode, so we can plan the visit
What it’s made of, if you know
Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How the damage happens

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

Chips under the taps
Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
Rusty patches near the plughole
Snagging damage from a refit

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

Have new chips seen to early
A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Store metal items away from the bath

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

CM0: your questions answered

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

How long before I can use the bath?

Generally within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Will the repair last?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Typically. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
