Bath repair across HX4: what to expect

A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. We work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are cracks in an acrylic bath and a chip where the taps sit.

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours.

We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the day after.

Cost

Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Repairs by material

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.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Can I fix it myself?

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Repair or replace?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Normally it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it.

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to HX4. The price comes down to:

Where the damage is and how we get to it
The size and number of damaged areas
The material and finish
Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
