About our bath repair in Riccall
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can typically bathe again the following day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. If you’re dealing with hairline or through cracks in acrylic and damage beneath the taps, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Signs you need bath repair in Riccall
Rust generally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
The things customers typically mention when they call include:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
Questions to ask before you book
- How long it needs to cure
- How the colour is matched
- What prep work is covered
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Your questions about bath repair in Riccall
Are there extra charges for Riccall?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Do you come to Riccall?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Riccall from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used 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.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What affects the price in Riccall

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Riccall. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole bath
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
