Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thirsk use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Bath repair in Thirsk without replacing anything
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site. If you are dealing with chips on the rim or sides and damage beneath the taps, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
FAQs for Thirsk
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Repair or replace in Thirsk?
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. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
