About our bath repair in Mirfield

A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site. We are frequently asked to fix damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and deep scratches in acrylic, across cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Our hiring checklist

Mirfield questions

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you work in Mirfield?

We do. Technicians travel to Mirfield from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you cover the whole of Kirklees?

The whole UK, including all of Kirklees. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can you redo an old repair?

Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

When can I have a bath again?

Usually the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

When we would advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

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

Materials we work on in Mirfield

  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Acrylic

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What affects the price in Mirfield

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Mirfield. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Most customers in Mirfield get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
