Bath repair at your home in Owton Manor
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Common call-outs are for a kit repair that didn’t last and scuffs and scratches in the surface, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Your questions about bath repair in Owton Manor
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Do you work in Owton Manor?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Owton Manor for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
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 is what we repair.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, tidy-up included.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Common problems we fix in Owton Manor
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- Chips under the taps
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A hole punched through by something heavy
What to look for in a quote
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How soon you can use it again
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
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.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Owton Manor. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
