Bath repair at your home in BD16

We’ve repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. Each is repaired in place with a one-year guarantee. Common call-outs are for chips on the rim or sides and damage beneath the taps, in pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes two to three hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the following day.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Repair or replace?

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Common problems we fix in BD16

A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until it cracks.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Rust spots around the plughole

Common questions in BD16

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

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 will tell you what to expect.

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BD16 postcode.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

Do you cover the entire of Bradford?

We work UK-wide, so BD16 is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
