About bath repair in LE18
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are a cracked acrylic bath and chips along the edge of the bath.
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- 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.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Around Wigston
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Birkett House School, All Saints Church of England Primary School and The Horse and Trumpet pub, among other places. Nearby too are Church of All Saints (under half a mile south-west), Abington Academy (within half a mile west) and Lucas Marsh (1.2 miles north-east). The closest station to Wigston is South Wigston station, about 1.1 miles west. Further afield, we also cover the area around Fielding Johnson Building (2.7 miles north) and Fosse Shopping Park (3.2 miles west).
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Repairing versus replacing
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes.
Questions to ask before you book
- When it can be used again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How your room will be protected
- What preparation is included
What we are called out for in LE18
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Look out for any of the following:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in LE18 as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
