Our bath repair service in Leeds

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We’re frequently asked to fix a chip where the taps sit and holes from dropped items, on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Pricing in Leeds

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

For landlords and businesses

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

Signs you need bath repair

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

Common reasons people in Leeds contact us include:

Chips caused by builders
Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
Chips along the edge of the bath
Deep scratches in acrylic

Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The type of damage
Where the damage is and how we get to it

Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A close-up of the damage, in focus
Your postcode, so we can check dates

If you’re in Leeds and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

Rinse it down after each bath
Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
