Bath repair at your home in Little Clifton
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about rust by the waste and overflow and impact holes in acrylic.

What we are called out for in Little Clifton
Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A chipped rim or side
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
Before you book anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What prep work is covered
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What aftercare is recommended
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What affects the price in Little Clifton
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Little Clifton. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Common questions in Little Clifton
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally within a day, depending on the repair.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Repair or replace in Little Clifton?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why book with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- We leave the room as we found it
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding

Landlord and trade work in Little Clifton
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
