Bath repair at your home in PA42
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Common call-outs are for cracks in an acrylic bath and chips under the taps, on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and pressed steel enamel.
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
What it costs in PA42

Common problems we fix in PA42
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Holes from dropped items
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A steel bath rusted through
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to PA42. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

How do I get a price for bath repair in PA42?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
