About our bath repair in Mount Tabor
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can generally bathe again the next day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are chips along the edge of the bath and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Calderdale.

Should you replace it?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
For a price in Mount Tabor, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Mount Tabor: your questions answered
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes two to three hours for most chips in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price

Advice
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Have new chips seen to early
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
Landlord and trade work in Mount Tabor
If you manage property in Mount Tabor, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
