Bath repair at your home in Burtersett
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, usually in a single visit. We regularly repair acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people contact us are scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What affects the price in Burtersett
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole bath
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DL8 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What your bath is made of matters
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.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A steel bath rusted through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
When to call us in Burtersett
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, often before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Look out for these signs:
- A chipped rim or side
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A kit repair that didn’t last
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What aftercare is recommended
- What preparation is included

Landlord and trade work in Burtersett
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North Yorkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Burtersett use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
Your questions about bath repair in Burtersett
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Often, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, 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. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
