Bath repair at your home in Nawton

Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, generally in a single visit. Our repair technicians work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks in an acrylic bath and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

Your questions about bath repair in Nawton

Is a bath repair durable?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will I be able to see the repair?

The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

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

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes two to three hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Nawton. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your YO62 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Acrylic

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Nawton

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
