Bath repair at your home in North Kelsey
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the rim or sides and deep scratches in acrylic.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Generally it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
What we are called out for in North Kelsey
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Rust spots around the plughole

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.

When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Common questions in North Kelsey
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Often, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you come to North Kelsey?
We do. We send a technician to North Kelsey for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep a parking space free if you can
