For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sladesbridge as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Bath repair in Sladesbridge, done in place
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and chips along the edge of the bath.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole bath
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Sladesbridge questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How long before I can use the bath?
Usually the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How invisible is a bath repair?
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.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Do you need bath repair in Sladesbridge?
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Common reasons people in Sladesbridge contact us are:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the colour is matched
- How your room will be protected
- What aftercare is recommended
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
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, so it’s always worth repairing.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A steel bath rusted through
