Repairing versus replacing in Gonerby Hill Foot
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. 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. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Gonerby Hill Foot. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Rooms protected and left tidy

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NG31 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Rinse it down after each bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
