How we handle bath repair in Gibbet Hill
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the day after. If you are dealing with rusty patches near the plughole and a hole punched through by something heavy, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Gibbet Hill as everywhere else we work.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair

FAQs for Gibbet Hill
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Gibbet Hill?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Often, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Landlord and trade work in Gibbet Hill
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gibbet Hill use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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 usually the cheaper route.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Rinse it down after each bath
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Don’t 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 your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
