Bath repair in Lyons, done in place
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. We work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and people most frequently call us about scuffs and scratches in the surface and chips on the rim or sides.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in Lyons, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

FAQs for Lyons
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Usually the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
