When to call us in Thorganby
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, often before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
Questions to ask before you book

Landlord and trade work in Thorganby
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thorganby as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Questions from Thorganby
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Thorganby.

When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A steel bath rusted through
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

- Nothing taken out or refitted

The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, usually by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Thorganby. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
