Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Ordsall, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What else we do in Ordsall
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Ordsall questions
Do you cover Ordsall?
We do. We send a technician to Ordsall for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
How much does bath repair cost in Ordsall?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your DN22 postcode.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- We leave the room as we found it
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Everything repaired in place

Signs you need bath repair in Ordsall
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Snagging damage from a refit
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price covers travel
- Who will actually do the work
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Advice
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
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.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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.
