Bath repair across SN26: what to expect
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Common call-outs are for rust by the waste and overflow and a chip where the taps sit, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Cost
Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for SN26. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Landlords, agents and businesses in SN26
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Signs you need bath repair
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
SN26 questions
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, SN26 included. Travel is included in the price.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
How do I get a price for bath repair in SN26?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
