Bath repair in Abbeydale without replacing anything
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the following day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. If you’re dealing with a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and a hole punched through by something heavy, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Abbeydale and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
When a repair is not the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Why repair rather than replace?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why book with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- One price list for the entire UK

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire bath
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- 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, typically the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice
FAQs for Abbeydale
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Have new chips seen to early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
