About our bath repair in Horton in Ribblesdale
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. We work on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are chips along the edge of the bath and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

- A steel bath rusted through
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt is not 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 photos, as it can add time.
Common problems we fix in Horton in Ribblesdale

Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips caused by builders
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A cracked acrylic bath
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Horton in Ribblesdale use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Horton in Ribblesdale questions
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
