How bath repair works in YO15
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. We are often asked to fix snagging damage from a refit and deep scratches in acrylic, on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and cast iron enamel.
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
What it costs in YO15
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Signs you need bath repair
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A chipped rim or side
- Holes from dropped items
- Chips caused by builders
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Landlords, agents and businesses in YO15
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in YO15 as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
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.
