Bath repair across PA38: what to expect
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about chips along the edge of the bath and chips caused by builders.
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Pricing in PA38
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including PA38. The price reflects:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Signs you need bath repair
Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
People generally call us after spotting one of these:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Holes from dropped items
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A chip where the taps sit
PA38: your questions answered
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
