About our bath repair in Flockton
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Typical jobs include a kit repair that didn’t last and damage beneath the taps, across cast iron enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Flockton as everywhere else we work.

Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Repair or replace in Flockton?
People frequently 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. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your WF4 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Flockton questions
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
Common problems we fix in Flockton
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
People typically call us after spotting something like this:
- Chips under the taps
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How to look after the finish
- What protection goes down before work starts
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
