About our bath repair in Driby
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are snagging damage from a refit and a hole punched through by something heavy.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Driby and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

Driby: your questions answered
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Should you replace it?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
When to call us in Driby
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Look out for any of the following:
- Chips caused by builders
- A chipped rim or side
- Chips under the taps
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
