Trusted bath repair in Hawksworth

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Bath repair in Hawksworth, done in place

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can typically bathe again the next day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. We’re often asked to fix a cracked acrylic bath and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, in acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Hawksworth, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Why repair rather than replace?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Typically it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

See our full price list or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

FAQs for Hawksworth

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Nottinghamshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
