Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LE67 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
How we handle bath repair in Swannington
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Common call-outs are for rust by the waste and overflow and a hole punched through by something heavy, across acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Swannington as everywhere else we work.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic

Advice
Swannington: your questions answered
Can you redo an old repair?

Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you come to Swannington?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Swannington and the rest of Leicestershire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Swannington, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Repair or replace in Swannington?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Repairs by material
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’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
