About bath repair in YO19
We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. Each is repaired in place. Our technicians work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are chips caused by builders and cracks in an acrylic bath.
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes 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.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.
Cost
Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why book with us

- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

What we’re called out for in YO19
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Chips under the taps
- Rust spots around the plughole
Should you replace it?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Generally it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How to care for the finish
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
FAQs for YO19
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
