Bath repair in Costhorpe, done in place
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the next day. Typical jobs include impact holes in acrylic and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, across roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Costhorpe and across Nottinghamshire.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Costhorpe
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Costhorpe. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Costhorpe: your questions answered
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you come to Costhorpe?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Costhorpe and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Common problems we fix in Costhorpe

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- 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.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
