The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
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.
Scawby Brook: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
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?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Do you come to Scawby Brook?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Scawby Brook and the rest of North Lincolnshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
When to call us in Scawby Brook
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Chips under the taps
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A chipped rim or side
- A cracked acrylic bath

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Scawby Brook as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What affects the price in Scawby Brook
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
