How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you are in South Cliffe and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Signs you need bath repair in South Cliffe
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Damage beneath the taps
Before you book anyone
- When it can be used again
- How your room will be protected
- What prep work is covered
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

For anyone letting property in or around South Cliffe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
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.
Repair or replace in South Cliffe?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price

Related advice
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.

Common questions in South Cliffe
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
How invisible is a bath repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in South Cliffe.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
