About our bath repair in Cautley
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles aren’t touched, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. We work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are scuffs and scratches in the surface and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Cautley. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Cautley questions
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
Repair or replace in Cautley?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Cautley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- We leave the room as we found it
- One visit for most repairs
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
