Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
About our bath repair in Thurlby
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most frequently call us about holes from dropped items and chips along the edge of the bath.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Thurlby and across Lincolnshire.

Thurlby questions
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you come to Thurlby?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Thurlby and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you cover the entire of Lincolnshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Thurlby included. Travel is included in the price.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
What affects the price in Thurlby
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
When to call us in Thurlby
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Look out for any of the following:
- A chipped rim or side
- Chips under the taps
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Impact holes in acrylic
What your quote should include
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price covers travel
- Who will actually do the work
- What prep work is covered
Landlords, agents and businesses in Thurlby
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
For anyone letting property in or around Thurlby, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
