About our bath repair in Willoughby-on-the-Wolds
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are chips caused by builders and chips along the edge of the bath.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

When to call us in Willoughby-on-the-Wolds
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips under the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How soon you can use it again
- How the room is protected while they work

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
How to prepare

Advice
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Why repair rather than replace?
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 the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- No need to remove anything
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Most jobs done in one visit

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A steel bath rusted through
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths

Questions from Willoughby-on-the-Wolds
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Willoughby-on-the-Wolds?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your LE12 postcode.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most clients in Willoughby-on-the-Wolds get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
