About our bath repair in Coneythorpe
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site. Typical jobs include rust spots around the plughole and impact holes in acrylic, on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Coneythorpe. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One picture of the whole bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Coneythorpe questions
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Coneythorpe?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes two to three hours for most chips, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Coneythorpe
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
The things customers typically mention when they call include:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips caused by builders
- A chipped rim or side
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How to look after the finish
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if they find more damage
How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What else we do in Coneythorpe
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
