How bath repair works in DY8
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the following day. Common call-outs are for scratches you can feel with a fingernail and cracks in an acrylic bath, in acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Should you replace it?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it.
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Aftercare advice
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Signs you need bath repair
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Chips caused by builders
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Holes from dropped items
FAQs for DY8
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Are there extra charges for DY8?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
