Bath repair at your home in DN2

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. Common call-outs are for scuffs and scratches in the surface and chips along the edge of the bath, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

What you will pay

Our bath repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Doncaster and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for DN2. The price reflects:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

FAQs for DN2

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

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

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Often, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Is a bath repair durable?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
