Bath repair in Timberland Dales, done in place
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. We are often asked to fix an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and snagging damage from a refit, in whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Timberland Dales and across Lincolnshire.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What we’re called out for in Timberland Dales
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Holes from dropped items
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A cracked acrylic bath
Questions to ask before booking
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Who will actually do the work
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Questions from Timberland Dales
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
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 normally the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Have new chips seen to early
- Store metal items away from the bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice
What affects the price in Timberland Dales
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole bath
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
