Bath repair at your home in Heighington
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are rust spots around the plughole and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Should you replace it?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- A year’s guarantee on all work

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Common questions in Heighington
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Normally. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. 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 what we repair.

- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Holes from dropped items
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
What to look for in a quote

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
