Why repair rather than replace?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • No extra charge for your area
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Everything repaired in place

See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Micklethwaite. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Common problems we fix in Micklethwaite

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

Customers usually contact us about:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Impact holes in acrylic

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How to care for the finish

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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 photos.

Questions from Micklethwaite

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send photos.

How long before I can use the bath?

Usually the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.

Do you cover the whole of Leeds?

We cover the whole UK, including Micklethwaite and the rest of Leeds. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A steel bath rusted through

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
