How bath repair works in LN9
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. We work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most often call us about snagging damage from a refit and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the next day.

Near you in Horncastle
Our customers here include homes close to Church of the Holy Trinity, Queen Elizabeth's Grammar School and The Ship Inn Hotel and the streets around them. Further afield, we also cover the area around War Memorial Hospital (within half a mile north). Green spaces nearby include Langton Hill.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
How the damage happens
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Chips under the taps
- A chipped rim or side
Repair or replace?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
LN9: your questions answered
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Normally. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
