About bath repair in L33
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. Typical jobs include rust by the waste and overflow and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Prices in L33
Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Repair or replace?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What we’re called out for in L33
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including L33. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for L33. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
For a price in L33, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Questions from L33
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
