DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we are called out for in Holme
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A hole punched through by something heavy
Questions to ask before you book
- What prep work is covered
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How the colour is matched
- When it can be used again
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, usually by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice
Your questions about bath repair in Holme
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
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 cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

What else we do in Holme
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Holme as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Repair or replace in Holme?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
Take a look at our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
