Bath repair in Follifoot without replacing anything
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are deep scratches in acrylic and chips under the taps.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel

Repair or replace: which is better?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Normally it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Work done at your home or business
- A fixed quote before you book

Follifoot: your questions answered
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do you cover the whole of North Yorkshire?
Across the UK, so Follifoot is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
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 the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
