Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Aldbrough. The price reflects:

  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Aldbrough, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repair or replace in Aldbrough?

Replacing a fitted bath generally means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Aldbrough as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Your questions about bath repair in Aldbrough

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Do you cover Aldbrough?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Aldbrough and the rest of East Riding of Yorkshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send pictures.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across East Riding of Yorkshire.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Cast iron enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Pressed steel enamel

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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 typically the cheaper route.
