Bath repair across IV15: what to expect
We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. Each is repaired in place. We regularly repair acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are snagging damage from a refit and a chipped rim or side.
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Pricing in IV15

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Care for 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.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Repairing versus replacing
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit.

Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Clients typically contact us about:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Holes from dropped items
