Bath repair across YO60: what to expect

We’ve repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. Common call-outs are for impact holes in acrylic and rust spots around the plughole, on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic.

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

Prices in YO60

Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including YO60. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is

There are no surprise 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 photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.
