How bath repair works in LS22

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a chipped rim or side.

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the day after.

Cost

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Landlord and trade work in LS22

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For anyone letting property in or around LS22, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Signs you need bath repair

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Chips on the rim or sides

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

Common questions in LS22

When can I have a bath again?

Normally within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is a bath repair permanent?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Will the repair show?

On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Leeds. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
