About bath repair in MK40
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the next day. Common call-outs are for chips on the rim or sides and chips caused by builders, in roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Common problems we fix in MK40
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips caused by builders
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Rust by the waste and overflow
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
For anyone letting property in or around MK40, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is.
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
- What aftercare is recommended
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
