Bath repair at your home in Birkholme
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. We’re frequently asked to fix an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and deep scratches in acrylic, across roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and cast iron enamel.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Birkholme: your questions answered
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Typically. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
When can I have a bath again?
Generally the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For anyone letting property in or around Birkholme, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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.
Repairing versus replacing in Birkholme
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Signs you need bath repair in Birkholme
Rust generally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips along the edge of the bath
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who will actually do the work
- How your room will be protected
- When it can be used again
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on

What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
