You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. Whether it’s a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and damage beneath the taps, we can typically put it right.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

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

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.

Questions from Bilton

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

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

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

What areas do you cover?

All of East Riding of Yorkshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • 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
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace in Bilton?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Why book with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

See our prices page or bath cost comparison.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Bilton. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

When to call us in Bilton

The things customers usually mention when they call are:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Chips under the taps
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, tidy-up included.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. Once it has cured, generally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bilton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
