About bath repair in SK1
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We are frequently asked to fix holes from dropped items and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Prices in SK1
Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Common problems we fix in SK1
Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Customers typically contact us about:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Damage beneath the taps
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for SK1. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
SK1: your questions answered
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you come to SK1?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to SK1 from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
