Bath Repair for Fellside homes
Bath repair for Fellside, without a refit. Send us pictures for a fixed price, then book a visit.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Snagging damage from a refit
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

FAQs for Fellside
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Fellside. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Fellside. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- Work done at your home or business
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
When a repair is not the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Fellside

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
