What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NR21 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

About our bath repair in Great Ryburgh

You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Whether it’s impact holes in acrylic and rusty patches near the plughole, we can normally put it right, on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Landlord and trade work in Great Ryburgh

For anyone letting property in or around Great Ryburgh, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Ryburgh use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. 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.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A steel bath rusted through

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Signs you need bath repair in Great Ryburgh

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

Questions from Great Ryburgh

How do I get a price for bath repair in Great Ryburgh?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Will I be able to see the repair?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Typically. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you redo an old repair?

Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Do you cover Great Ryburgh?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Great Ryburgh for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
