Bath repair across TN40: what to expect

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’re often asked to fix deep scratches in acrylic and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

How the damage happens

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips caused by builders
  • Chips under the taps
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • A kit repair that didn’t last

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

What affects the price in TN40

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.

FAQs for TN40

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.

Will the repair last?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
