About our bath repair in New Edlington
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can generally bathe again the following day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Common call-outs are for a chipped rim or side and holes from dropped items, in pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Have new chips seen to early
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

FAQs for New Edlington
Do you come to New Edlington?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to New Edlington and the rest of Doncaster. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
How much does bath repair cost in New Edlington?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Get a quote
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in New Edlington
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting.
