Bath repair at your home in Allerthorpe
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can generally bathe again the day after. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Common call-outs are for impact holes in acrylic and rust by the waste and overflow, in pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

FAQs for Allerthorpe
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are there extra charges for Allerthorpe?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you are in Allerthorpe and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
