Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
How we handle bath repair in Bassingham
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. We’re often asked to fix a cracked acrylic bath and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Repairing versus replacing in Bassingham
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LN5 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Bassingham questions
Do you cover Bassingham?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Bassingham for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Usually within a day, depending on the repair.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
