Bath Repair for Kinoulton homes

When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

About our bath repair in Kinoulton
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can generally use the bath the following day. If you’re dealing with damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and deep scratches in acrylic, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and acrylic alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kinoulton as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Common questions in Kinoulton
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Do you cover Kinoulton?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Kinoulton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How much does bath repair cost in Kinoulton?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Other services in Kinoulton
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most clients in Kinoulton get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Do you need bath repair in Kinoulton?
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.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Holes from dropped items
- A chipped rim or side
What your quote should include
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether a trained technician does the job
