- Chips caused by builders
- Holes from dropped items
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice

About our bath repair in Ferrybridge
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, typically in a single visit. If you are dealing with rust by the waste and overflow and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can help, whatever the material.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wakefield.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Ferrybridge questions
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- 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.
- 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 day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get 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 will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Repair or replace in Ferrybridge?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Ferrybridge. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why Ferrybridge clients choose us
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Same prices wherever you are
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
You do not 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 come back to you with a fixed figure.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
