Our bath repair service in LS8

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 cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people contact us are deep scratches in acrylic and rusty patches near the plughole.

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

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.
We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.

What it costs in LS8

Our bath repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How the damage happens

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

Clients typically contact us about:

A chip where the taps sit
Rust spots around the plughole
A cracked acrylic bath
Chips along the edge of the bath

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including LS8. What changes the price is:

The material
What kind of damage it is
Where the damage is and how we get to it
Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

Any details about the material
Any earlier repairs or coatings
The postcode, so we can plan the visit
One picture of the entire bath

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

LS8 questions

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is a bath repair durable?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Often, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
