It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips on the rim or sides
What your quote should include
- How to care for the finish

- How long it needs to cure
Bath repair in Saxilby, done in place
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. You can typically use the bath the day after. Typical jobs include impact holes in acrylic and damage beneath the taps, across pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
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, avoiding abrasives.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
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.
Should you replace it?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Saxilby, and we will reply with a fixed price.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
