How bath repair works in S70
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Common call-outs are for chips along the edge of the bath and impact holes in acrylic, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel.
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Prices in S70

Near you in Shaw Lands
Typical jobs here are in homes near Horizon Community College, Locke Park and St George's Church and the streets around them. Nearby too are Joseph Locke Primary School (less than half a mile north-west), The White Hart Public House (less than half a mile north-east) and Holgate School (within half a mile north-west). For rail, the closest station is Barnsley station, about 0.6 miles north-east of the centre. A little further out are Experience Barnsley (0.5 miles north-east) and Alhambra Shopping Centre (0.5 miles east).
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including S70. What changes the price is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
For a price in S70, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
How the damage happens
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Damage beneath the taps
- A chipped rim or side
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Holes from dropped items
FAQs for S70
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Usually. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
