Bath repair at your home in Mount Florida
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the next day. We work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about cracks and holes in acrylic baths and damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

Mount Florida questions
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
When can I use it again after the repair?
Usually by the next day, depending on what we’ve done. We’ll confirm the exact time when we finish.
Do you cover Mount Florida?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Mount Florida. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Mount Florida?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your G44 postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Repair or replace in Mount Florida?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

When to call us in Mount Florida
Nearly all the chips we see starts with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust once water gets in. Acrylic baths, on the other hand, crack when they flex, usually near the taps or the waste.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- Scratches and burns
- Rust spots where the enamel has gone
- Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
- Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
What your quote should include
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How the room is protected while we work
- Aftercare advice
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price

Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
