Bath repair in Hepworth, done in place
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can generally use the bath the following day. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and people most often call us about a chipped rim or side and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kirklees.

Common problems we fix in Hepworth
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
People generally call us when they notice something like this:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price

Advice
For landlords and businesses
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.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Repair or replace in Hepworth?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Questions from Hepworth
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Kirklees.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you come to Hepworth?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hepworth and the rest of Kirklees. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
