How bath repair works in SS7
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Typical jobs include rust by the waste and overflow and a hole punched through by something heavy, across acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the next day.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Common problems we fix in SS7
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.
The things customers normally mention when they call include:
- Chips caused by builders
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Chips under the taps
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
