Bath repair in Goosehill without replacing anything
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can normally use the bath the next day. Whether it’s chips on the rim or sides and rust by the waste and overflow, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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 frequently lifts.
Do you need bath repair in Goosehill?
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Rust spots around the plughole

Repairing versus replacing in Goosehill
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

FAQs for Goosehill
When can I have a bath again?
Typically within a day, though it depends on what we have done.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you come to Goosehill?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Goosehill for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
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.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you cover the entire of Wakefield?
All of Wakefield, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
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.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
