How bath repair works in SG18
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We are often asked to fix a chip where the taps sit and chips along the edge of the bath, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic.
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, usually by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
If you manage property in SG18, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we’re called out for in SG18
A cracked acrylic bath generally wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A kit repair that didn’t last
Common questions in SG18
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Do you cover SG18?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to SG18 from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
