Repairing versus replacing in Ugglebarnby
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Normally it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or 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 apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Before we arrive

- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ugglebarnby questions
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you cover Ugglebarnby?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Ugglebarnby for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
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.
Signs you need bath repair in Ugglebarnby
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A chipped rim or side
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A chip where the taps sit

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Ugglebarnby, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
