How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Dalton. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
How we handle bath repair in Dalton
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. We work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about a kit repair that didn’t last and a cracked acrylic bath.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
What you get with us

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dalton
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Rotherham and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
If you manage property in Dalton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
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.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
Dalton questions
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you work in Dalton?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Dalton. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Signs you need bath repair in Dalton
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A chipped rim or side

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- 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 tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
