Our bath repair service in HP23
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Our repair technicians work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are chips along the edge of the bath and a kit repair that didn’t last.
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes two to three hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
How the damage happens
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Clients normally contact us about:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A chipped rim or side
- Damage beneath the taps
- Chips caused by builders
Questions from HP23
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How do I get a price for bath repair in HP23?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
