Bath repair at your home in Derry
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Common call-outs are for a chipped rim or side and scuffs and scratches in the surface, in cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the following day.
What you’ll pay
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- Colour-matched on site
- No need to remove anything
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
Getting a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Derry. What changes the price is:
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise 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.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Landlord and trade work in Derry
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
What we’re called out for in Derry
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Look out for any of the following:
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Impact holes in acrylic
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Your questions about bath repair in Derry
How long before I can use the bath?
Typically the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
