How we handle bath repair in Little Ayton
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can typically use the bath the following day. We work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and people most frequently call us about chips under the taps and a cracked acrylic bath.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Do you come to Little Ayton?

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Store metal items away from the bath
There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

What we are called out for in Little Ayton
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A chip where the taps sit
Before you book anyone
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- When it can be used again
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Repair or replace in Little Ayton?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire bath

The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
