Bath Repair for Thrigby homes
We travel to Thrigby for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A kit repair that didn’t last
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
How we handle bath repair in Thrigby
Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. We’re often asked to fix impact holes in acrylic and chips on the rim or sides, in cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Thrigby and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Thrigby, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thrigby as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Your questions about bath repair in Thrigby
How do I get a price for bath repair in Thrigby?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Thrigby. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- 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 day after.
Getting ready for the visit
