Areas we cover
Our bath repair service in BD13
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. Common call-outs are for chips caused by builders and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, in pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel.
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Pricing in BD13
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why choose Surface Doctor
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No need to remove anything
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Signs you need bath repair
Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Holes from dropped items
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus

Landlords, agents and businesses in BD13
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in BD13 use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
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 you keep the bath you chose. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- If travel is included in the price
Your questions about bath repair in BD13
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Are there extra charges for BD13?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How much does bath repair cost in BD13?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BD13 postcode.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
