Common questions in Nun Monkton
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How long before I can use the bath?
Generally within a day, depending on the repair.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Nun Monkton?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of York. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Generally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
What affects the price in Nun Monkton
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- 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.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
