DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. 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 damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your YO7 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.

- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access

Topcliffe questions
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
