How we handle bath repair in Goadby
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. We work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are a cracked acrylic bath and chips on the rim or sides.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repairs by material
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 repair chips early.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
What we can’t put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

Repair or replace in Goadby?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Questions from Goadby
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
When can you do it?

What else we do in Goadby
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Rinse it down after each bath
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
What affects the price in Goadby
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
