Repairing versus replacing in Kilton
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Bath repair at your home in Kilton
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Common call-outs are for chips along the edge of the bath and impact holes in acrylic, across whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

The process
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
Common questions in Kilton
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
When can I have a bath again?
Usually within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Kilton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
Signs you need bath repair in Kilton
Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Rusty patches near the plughole
Questions to ask before you book
- How the colour is matched
- What happens if they find more damage
- How long it needs to cure
- Who turns up on the day
