How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Upper Batley. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
How we handle bath repair in Upper Batley
Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, normally in a single visit. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people contact us are a chip where the taps sit and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Upper Batley and across Kirklees.

FAQs for Upper Batley
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Landlord and trade work in Upper Batley
For anyone letting property in or around Upper Batley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- 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 tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, usually by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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 the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Should you replace it?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
