We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Bath repair at your home in Lothersdale
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We work on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are a kit repair that didn’t last and chips caused by builders.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bradford.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What affects the price in Lothersdale
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
FAQs for Lothersdale
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
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 there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Do you cover Lothersdale?
We do. Technicians travel to Lothersdale from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
What we are called out for in Lothersdale
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Chips caused by builders
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Rusty patches near the plughole
Questions to ask before you book
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- When it can be used again
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What we can’t put right
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
