Your questions about bath repair in South Cockerington
Do you cover South Cockerington?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to South Cockerington for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Generally. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in South Cockerington

Should you replace it?
Replacing a fitted bath normally means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us

- One visit for most repairs
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Same prices wherever you are

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
