Bath repair at your home in Thornton-le-Dale
We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. Each is repaired in place with a one-year guarantee. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are a kit repair that didn’t last and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your YO18 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Thornton-le-Dale

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Common problems we fix in Thornton-le-Dale
Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A chip where the taps sit
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A chipped rim or side

FAQs for Thornton-le-Dale
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Thornton-le-Dale?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Thornton-le-Dale.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
What affects the price in Thornton-le-Dale
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What else we do in Thornton-le-Dale
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Store metal items away from the bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
