How we handle bath repair in Kirkby Green
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can normally bathe again the next day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Whether it’s a chipped rim or side and snagging damage from a refit, we can usually put it right.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Kirkby Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Kirkby Green. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you are in Kirkby Green and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
FAQs for Kirkby Green
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Lincolnshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the next day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Do you come to Kirkby Green?
We do. We send a technician to Kirkby Green for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Why repair rather than replace?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Usually it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
