What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Maltby: your questions answered

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Maltby?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.
Do you cover the entire of Middlesbrough?
The whole UK, including all of Middlesbrough. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One picture of the entire bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Repair or replace: which is better?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Why us?
- Everything repaired in place
- A fixed quote before booking
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What else we do in Maltby
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice
When to call us in Maltby
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A chipped rim or side
- A chip where the taps sit
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
