Bath repair in Deane, done in place
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the next day. Whether it’s chips caused by builders and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What affects the price in Deane
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For a price in Deane, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repairing versus replacing in Deane
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- One price list for the entire UK
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
See our full price list or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
