Bath repair at your home in Sculthorpe
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Whether it’s scuffs and scratches in the surface and a chipped rim or side, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Questions from Sculthorpe
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Sculthorpe included. Travel is included in the price.
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we will tell you what to expect.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Signs you need bath repair in Sculthorpe
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A chip where the taps sit
- Snagging damage from a refit
What to look for in a quote
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes two to three hours for most chips in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
Repair or replace in Sculthorpe?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
