Our bath repair service in PA30
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can typically use the bath the next day. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most frequently call us about chips caused by builders and a hole punched through by something heavy.
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, tidy-up included.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place.
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- If travel is included in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. 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.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Rinse it down after each bath
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to PA30. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire bath
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
PA30 questions
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Generally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How do I get a price for bath repair in PA30?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
