What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
About our bath repair in Ingerthorpe
We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. We work on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are impact holes in acrylic and rust by the waste and overflow.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Signs you need bath repair in Ingerthorpe
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How soon you can use it again
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Common questions in Ingerthorpe
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Typically. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Are there extra charges for Ingerthorpe?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Related advice
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ingerthorpe. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ingerthorpe
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ingerthorpe use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repairing versus replacing in Ingerthorpe
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
