About our bath repair in Nether Poppleton
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can usually use the bath the day after. Our technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and cracks in an acrylic bath.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a fitted bath typically means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Nether Poppleton questions
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Nether Poppleton?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you come to Nether Poppleton?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Nether Poppleton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Do you need bath repair in Nether Poppleton?
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Clients generally contact us about:
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips caused by builders
- Rust spots around the plughole
Questions to ask before booking
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
- Aftercare advice
- If travel is included in the price
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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.
