About bath repair in PL29
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Our repair technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people contact us are rust by the waste and overflow and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- 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.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Repairing versus replacing
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead.

What affects the price in PL29
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Rinse it down after each bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Questions from PL29
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How do I get a price for bath repair in PL29?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the following day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
