Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Bath repair in Clipstone without replacing anything
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site. Whether it’s chips caused by builders and rusty patches near the plughole, we can help, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Clipstone
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
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 without abrasive products.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. 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.
What we’re called out for in Clipstone
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
What your quote should include

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

Clipstone questions
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you come to Clipstone?
We do. We send a technician to Clipstone for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your NG21 postcode.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.

How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
