Bath repair at your home in Woodlesford

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Whether it’s damage beneath the taps and chips caused by builders, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Chips caused by builders
  • A chipped rim or side

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

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.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Woodlesford as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Questions from Woodlesford

Do you cover Woodlesford?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Woodlesford. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

When can I have a bath again?

Typically within a day, depending on the repair.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.

How invisible is a bath repair?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do you cover the entire of Leeds?

Everywhere in the UK, Woodlesford included. Travel is included in the price.

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 is the part we put right.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

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.

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

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 by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
