Bath repair in Elkesley, 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 and the tiles around it. You can typically use the bath the following day. If you’re dealing with a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and deep scratches in acrylic, we can usually put it right.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Elkesley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What we’re called out for in Elkesley
Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Chips caused by builders
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Damage beneath the taps

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Something in shot to show the size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take two to three hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- 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.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Questions from Elkesley
Are there extra charges for Elkesley?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
