Bath repair across RM2: what to expect
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We are frequently asked to fix chips along the edge of the bath and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, in acrylic, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.
What you will pay
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
Most clients in RM2 get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How the damage happens
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips under the taps
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Repair or replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Aftercare advice
- How the colour is matched
- How your room will be protected
