About our bath repair in Rylstone
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Typical jobs include damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, in acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- 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
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
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.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
Why repair rather than replace?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, 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.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Rylstone: your questions answered
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you cover the entire of North Yorkshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Rylstone included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
