About bath repair in PO7
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Our technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are a cracked acrylic bath and rust by the waste and overflow.
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
What it costs in PO7
Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A steel bath rusted through
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Repairing versus replacing
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it.

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
