Our bath repair service in LS98
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about scuffs and scratches in the surface and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
What you will pay
Prices start from £95. 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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Repair or replace?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes.

- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How the damage happens
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Damage beneath the taps
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
