Bath repair across CM3: what to expect
We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. Each is repaired in place with a one-year guarantee. We work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are rust by the waste and overflow and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- 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.
Cost
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why clients in CM3 choose us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- When it can be used again
- Aftercare advice
- Who will actually do the work
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for CM3. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
