Bolsover Woodhouse: your questions answered
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
About our bath repair in Bolsover Woodhouse
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Whether it’s scuffs and scratches in the surface and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, we can help, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Bolsover Woodhouse
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

The process
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the damage against your photos 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.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Bolsover Woodhouse. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
What we’re called out for in Bolsover Woodhouse
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips under the taps
- A hole punched through by something heavy
What to look for in a quote
- How your room will be protected
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How soon you can use it again
- What prep work is covered
