When to call us in Snibston
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.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A chip where the taps sit
- Deep scratches in acrylic
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What protection goes down before work starts

What else we do in Snibston
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For anyone letting property in or around Snibston, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Your questions about bath repair in Snibston
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Do you work in Snibston?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Snibston from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Snibston
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

What affects the price in Snibston
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
