Bath repair at your home in CV2
Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Common call-outs are for hairline or through cracks in acrylic and rust spots around the plughole, across pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel.
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the following day.
What you will pay
Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why choose Surface Doctor
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
What we are called out for in CV2
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- A chipped rim or side
Repairing versus replacing
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit.

- How the colour is matched
- When it can be used again

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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 kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
CV2 questions
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Are there extra charges for CV2?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
