How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You do not need a survey visit. 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.

  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Holes from dropped items

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the colour is matched
  • How to care for the finish

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before booking

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in New Bolingbroke

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

See our pricing or bath cost comparison.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Your questions about bath repair in New Bolingbroke

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How much does bath repair cost in New Bolingbroke?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PE22 postcode.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Lincolnshire.

How long before I can use the bath?

Normally within a day, though it depends on what we have done.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

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.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
