How bath repair works in SR2
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can typically use the bath the next day. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people contact us are holes from dropped items and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- 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 tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the following day.
Prices in SR2
Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A steel bath rusted through
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Repairing versus replacing
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that.
Questions to ask before booking
- Who will actually do the work
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What preparation is included
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
What we’re called out for in SR2
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until it cracks.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A chipped rim or side
Landlords, agents and businesses in SR2
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in SR2 as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
