Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your LN12 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Common problems we fix in Theddlethorpe All Saints

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • When it can be used again
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take two to three hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice

Materials and what they mean for the 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.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Store metal items away from the bath

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.

Questions from Theddlethorpe All Saints

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

When can I have a bath again?

Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Frequently, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
