Bath chip & crack repair in Osbournby, Lincolnshire
We travel to Osbournby for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips caused by builders
- A kit repair that didn’t last
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
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.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
About our bath repair in Osbournby
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. Typical jobs include cracks in an acrylic bath and a kit repair that didn’t last, in cast iron enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Osbournby and across Lincolnshire.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What your bath is made of matters
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.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
When a repair is not the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair

Signs you need bath repair in Osbournby
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether the price covers travel
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What protection goes down before work starts
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Common questions in Osbournby
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you cover the whole of Lincolnshire?
The entire UK, including all of Lincolnshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send pictures.
Repair or replace in Osbournby?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- No extra charge for your area
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
