Bath repair at your home in Clementhorpe
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the following day. Common call-outs are for deep scratches in acrylic and chips on the rim or sides, across roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in York.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your YO1 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
What we’re called out for in Clementhorpe
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Damage beneath the taps
- Holes from dropped items
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is matched
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the price covers travel
- Who will actually do the work
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
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 what we repair.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can

Advice
Landlord and trade work in Clementhorpe
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clementhorpe as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
For developers and builders, we fix 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 to keep costs down.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
FAQs for Clementhorpe
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
