Bath repair in Sandholme, done in place
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Whether it’s scuffs and scratches in the surface and chips on the rim or sides, we can help, on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and cast iron enamel alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What affects the price in Sandholme
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your HU15 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Common problems we fix in Sandholme
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Impact holes in acrylic
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What prep work is covered
- How soon you can use it again
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Riding of Yorkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sandholme as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
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.
Sandholme questions
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do you cover Sandholme?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Sandholme from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Should you replace it?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Sandholme. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- 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.
- 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
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price

Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Have new chips seen to early
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
