Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Bath repair in Scarborough without replacing anything
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, generally in a single visit. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are scuffs and scratches in the surface and a chipped rim or side.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What else we do in Scarborough
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Scarborough, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Signs you need bath repair in Scarborough
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Holes from dropped items
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

Should you replace it?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Your questions about bath repair in Scarborough
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A steel bath rusted through
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
