Bath Repair in Thurnscoe
Problem with your bath in Thurnscoe? We put it right where it is, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How we handle bath repair in Thurnscoe
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can typically bathe again the day after. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. We are frequently asked to fix a kit repair that didn’t last and chips along the edge of the bath, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Repair or replace in Thurnscoe?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Colour-matched on site
- No need to remove anything
See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Thurnscoe. The price depends on:
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you are in Thurnscoe and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
