How bath repair works in FY7
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can normally bathe again the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Typical jobs include chips along the edge of the bath and deep scratches in acrylic, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
On the day, 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 tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
What it costs in FY7
Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to FY7. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your FY7 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one typically means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What prep work is covered
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
How the damage happens
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Common reasons people in FY7 contact us are:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- A chipped rim or side
- Holes from dropped items
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
FY7 questions
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Do you work in FY7?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to FY7 and the rest of Lancashire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
