Bath repair at your home in Edlington
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There is no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are chips under the taps and a hole punched through by something heavy.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on

What we are called out for in Edlington
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Impact holes in acrylic
Before you book anyone
- If travel is included in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How your room will be protected
- What aftercare is recommended
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Your questions about bath repair in Edlington
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
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.
