- Snagging damage from a refit

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
How we handle bath repair in Whitwell
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We’re frequently asked to fix impact holes in acrylic and scuffs and scratches in the surface, across whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Why repair rather than replace?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Do you need bath repair in Whitwell?
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
The things customers normally mention when they call include:
- A chipped rim or side
- A chip where the taps sit
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Deep scratches in acrylic
Questions to ask before booking

Questions from Whitwell
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
There’s 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’ll reply with a fixed quote.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
