How bath repair works in GL13
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the day after. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about holes from dropped items and rust spots around the plughole.
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the day after.
Cost
Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Signs you need bath repair
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Common reasons people in GL13 contact us include:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A chip where the taps sit
- Chips along the edge of the bath
Landlord and trade work in GL13
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in GL13 as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
FAQs for GL13
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
