Bath repair across SK17: what to expect
Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, typically in a single visit. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and people most often call us about scratches you can feel with a fingernail and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
What you’ll pay
Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
What you get with us
- A fixed quote before booking
- No extra charge for your area
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Most jobs done in one visit

Around Buxton
We visit homes around Buxton Pavilion Gardens, St Thomas More Catholic Voluntary Academy and The White Lion and attached stable block pub. Also close by are St Thomas More Catholic School (0.5 miles north-west), Trinity Church (less than half a mile north) and Buxton Infant School (under half a mile north-west). There is a railway station in Buxton itself: Buxton station. Nearby you will also find Scriveners Books Victorian Museum (less than half a mile south-west) and Devonshire Royal Hospital (less than half a mile north-west). Not far away are Corbar Hill and Harpur Hill Quarry.
- Parks and local facilities nearby include Municipal Borough of Buxton (within half a mile north)
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Rinse it down after each bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for SK17. The price reflects:
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Where you are, by postcode
You don’t 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.
Your questions about bath repair in SK17
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
