What affects the price in Low Nibthwaite
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Low Nibthwaite. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Low Nibthwaite: your questions answered
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is a bath repair durable?
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 price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Generally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Are there extra charges for Low Nibthwaite?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

What your bath is made of matters
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 is what we repair.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
