Do you need bath repair in Gunby?
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- A chip where the taps sit
- Chips caused by builders

Bath repair in Gunby without replacing anything
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Typical jobs include chips caused by builders and rust spots around the plughole, on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

The process
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 few hours, tidy-up included.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- 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.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Repair or replace in Gunby?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Do not 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 a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Gunby: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Do you cover the entire of Lincolnshire?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Gunby. Prices don’t change with location.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Will the repair last?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.

Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
