Bath repair at your home in BD9
We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about cracks in an acrylic bath and a hole punched through by something heavy.
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Cost
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Same prices wherever you are

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit.
Questions to ask before you book
- What prep work is covered
- Who will actually do the work
- How to care for the finish
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
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, which makes it well worth repairing.
What we’re called out for in BD9
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
The things customers generally mention when they call are:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Chips under the taps
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Landlord and trade work in BD9
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Your questions about bath repair in BD9
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
