Our bath repair service in LS5
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can typically use the bath the day after. We’re often asked to fix holes from dropped items and chips along the edge of the bath, on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and acrylic.
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- 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 next day.
Prices in LS5
Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Not far away are Yeadon Tarn and Post Hill.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Common problems we fix in LS5
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A chip where the taps sit
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Rust by the waste and overflow
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LS5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
Should you replace it?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead.
Questions to ask before booking
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What prep work is covered
LS5: your questions answered
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
