What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Bath repair at your home in Scorton
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 pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about a hole punched through by something heavy and damage beneath the taps.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, 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 day after.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one generally means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Scorton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
When to call us in Scorton
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Common reasons people in Scorton contact us include:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips on the rim or sides
What your quote should include
- What preparation is included
- How to care for the finish
- What happens if they find more damage
- How your room will be protected
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
