Bath repair at your home in BD23
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can generally bathe again the day after. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Typical jobs include scuffs and scratches in the surface and a cracked acrylic bath, in acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- 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 day after.
What it costs in BD23
Our bath repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why choose Surface Doctor
- A fixed quote before booking
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Same prices wherever you are

What we’re called out for in BD23
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, often before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
The things customers normally mention when they call include:
- Chips caused by builders
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in a single visit.
What your quote should include
- If travel is included in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How to care for the finish
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For a price in BD23, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Common questions in BD23
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
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.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Do you come to BD23?
We do. Technicians travel to BD23 from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Typically. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
