Our bath repair service in TQ2

We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. Each is repaired in place with a one-year guarantee. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about a cracked acrylic bath and chips under the taps.

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the day after.

What you’ll pay

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The colour and finish to match
Doing more than one item at once
How many areas need work

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

Any earlier repairs or coatings
A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
The material, if you know it
Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s 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 so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Landlord and trade work in TQ2

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Signs you need bath repair

Rust typically starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

The most common problems we are called about are:

Damage beneath the taps
A hole punched through by something heavy
Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
Rusty patches near the plughole

Should you replace it?

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is.
