Why repair rather than replace?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
There are no surprise extras on the day. 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.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Common problems we fix in Kirk Langley
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.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A chipped rim or side
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What aftercare is recommended
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What prep work is covered
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
If you manage property in Kirk Langley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Kirk Langley questions
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
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.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Typically, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you cover the whole of Derbyshire?
Across the UK, and that includes Kirk Langley. Prices do not change with location.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
