How we handle bath repair in Little Horton
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the following day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We are often asked to fix chips along the edge of the bath and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Rinse it down after each bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Your questions about bath repair in Little Horton
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Do you come to Little Horton?
We do. We send a technician to Little Horton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Rust by the waste and overflow

Landlord and trade work in Little Horton
For anyone letting property in or around Little Horton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Little Horton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
