How we handle bath repair in Aughton
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are rusty patches near the plughole and a kit repair that didn’t last.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Aughton. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
Aughton: your questions answered
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across East Riding of Yorkshire.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Are there extra charges for Aughton?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
