How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Hambleton. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Hambleton: your questions answered
Do you cover Hambleton?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Hambleton and the rest of Lancashire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Usually within a day, though it depends on what we have done.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Landlord and trade work in Hambleton
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hambleton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Should you replace it?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Normally it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- No extra charge for your area
- Work done at your home or business
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
Read our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
