Our bath repair service in NG2
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about impact holes in acrylic and a chip where the taps sit.
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the day after.
What you will pay
Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- 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. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- The material
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- One picture of the whole bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
When we would advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
What we’re called out for in NG2
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Chips caused by builders
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A chip where the taps sit
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around NG2, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Nottinghamshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
FAQs for NG2
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Normally, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
