Bath repair at your home in DN8
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can normally bathe again the day after. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a chipped rim or side and snagging damage from a refit.
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- 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.
Cost
Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What’s near Thorne

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole bath
- The material, if you know it
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Should you replace it?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is.

Your questions about bath repair in DN8
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
When can I have a bath again?
Usually within a day, depending on the repair.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are there extra charges for DN8?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
