Our bath repair service in LE6
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Our repair technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped rim or side and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Cost
Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What’s near Groby
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Brookvale High School Groby, Church of St Philip and James and Kirby Frith Nature Reserve and the streets around them. Nearby too are The Stamford Arms (within half a mile north) and Elizabeth Woodville Primary School (under half a mile south-west). For rail, the closest station is Leicester station, about 4.6 miles south-east of the centre. Nearby you will also find Jewry Wall Museum (3.8 miles south-east) and Beaumont Shopping Centre (2.5 miles east). Green spaces nearby include Old John and Sheet Hedges Wood.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
There is nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Repairing versus replacing
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How to care for the finish
What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
For anyone letting property in or around LE6, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
What affects the price in LE6
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
LE6 questions
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Leicestershire.
