How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Bath repair in Thrumpton, done in place
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. We are frequently asked to fix scratches you can feel with a fingernail and cracks in an acrylic bath, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Thrumpton as everywhere else we work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
What we can’t put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Repairing versus replacing in Thrumpton
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, 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.
Why book with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Everything repaired in place

FAQs for Thrumpton
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you come to Thrumpton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Thrumpton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thrumpton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- 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.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
Most clients in Thrumpton get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
If you are in Thrumpton and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
