How bath repair works in HU13
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. We’re frequently asked to fix damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and rusty patches near the plughole, in cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- 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.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Cost
Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What’s near Hessle
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Hessle High School, Pickering Park and All Saints' Church of England Junior School. Also close by are The Tophouse pub (under half a mile south-east) and Church of All Saints (less than half a mile south-east). For rail, the closest station is Hessle station, roughly 0.6 miles south of the centre. Nearby you’ll also find Hull and East Riding Hospital (1 mile north) and Barton upon Humber Castle (3 miles south). For a walk, there is Far Ings National Nature Reserve.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
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.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- The material
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- One picture of the entire bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Landlords, agents and businesses in HU13
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What we are called out for in HU13
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
The things customers typically mention when they call include:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A chipped rim or side
- A cracked acrylic bath
