About our bath repair in South Hiendley
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are a cracked acrylic bath and rusty patches near the plughole.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Barnsley.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
If you are in South Hiendley and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Do you need bath repair in South Hiendley?
Rust usually starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A chip where the taps sit
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
Comparing quotes
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What preparation is included
Repair or replace in South Hiendley?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
