Bath Repair in Near Sawrey
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths at your home in Near Sawrey, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A chipped rim or side
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.
Bath repair in Near Sawrey, done in place
Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, generally in a single visit. Typical jobs include a kit repair that didn’t last and rust by the waste and overflow, in cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Repair or replace in Near Sawrey?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- No need to remove anything
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- We leave the room as we found it
See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Near Sawrey as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours.
- 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.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
