How we handle bath repair in Kirkby Overblow
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. If you’re dealing with rust by the waste and overflow and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, we can help.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.

Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- We leave the room as we found it
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Common questions in Kirkby Overblow
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Often, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Kirkby Overblow?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
For anyone letting property in or around Kirkby Overblow, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Kirkby Overblow. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
