Bath repair in Beckhill without replacing anything

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Common call-outs are for scuffs and scratches in the surface and snagging damage from a refit, in roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Leeds.

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the next day.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Should you replace it?

People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Normally it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Beckhill. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs

Beckhill questions

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Normally the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Acrylic

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
