What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
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 reply with a fixed quote.
Bath repair in Illingworth, done in place
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. If you’re dealing with snagging damage from a refit and chips on the rim or sides, we can normally put it right.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Illingworth and across Calderdale.

Landlord and trade work in Illingworth
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access

Do you need bath repair in Illingworth?
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
People typically call us after spotting one of these:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the price covers travel
- How to look after the finish
- What prep work is covered
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
FAQs for Illingworth
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally within a day, depending on the repair.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
