Bath repair in Whitley without replacing anything
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the day after. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. If you’re dealing with deep scratches in acrylic and snagging damage from a refit, we can help, on cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Whitley: your questions answered
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.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
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.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How much does bath repair cost in Whitley?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you come to Whitley?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Whitley for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DN14 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Whitley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Whitley
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
Should you replace it?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
