Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Bath repair in Gayton Thorpe, done in place
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. Our technicians work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about chips on the rim or sides and a chip where the taps sit.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.
Before we arrive

Related advice
Gayton Thorpe: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Do you work in Gayton Thorpe?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Gayton Thorpe from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
When to call us in Gayton Thorpe
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips on the rim or sides
What to look for in a quote
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who will actually do the work

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
