Our bath repair service in EH20
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Common call-outs are for a cracked acrylic bath and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, in cast iron enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the next day.
What it costs in EH20
Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A steel bath rusted through
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Signs you need bath repair
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex until the acrylic gives way.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Chips along the edge of the bath
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
EH20 questions
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
