How we handle bath repair in North Grimston
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. Common call-outs are for deep scratches in acrylic and a cracked acrylic bath, on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
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 price, not a guess.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for North Grimston. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel

North Grimston questions
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
