Bath repair in West Heslerton, done in place
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. If you’re dealing with an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and rust spots around the plughole, we can help, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in West Heslerton as everywhere else we work.

What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

What we’re called out for in West Heslerton
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Damage beneath the taps
- Chips caused by builders

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
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, so it’s always worth repairing.

Common questions in West Heslerton
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do you work in West Heslerton?
We do. We send a technician to West Heslerton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
When can I have a bath again?
Generally within a day, though it depends on what we have done.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
