Bath repair in East Denton without replacing anything
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about cracks in an acrylic bath and a chipped rim or side.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What affects the price in East Denton
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in East Denton, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in East Denton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Signs you need bath repair in East Denton
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Look out for these signs:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips under the taps

Common questions in East Denton
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
