Bath repair at your home in YO62

A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Common call-outs are for snagging damage from a refit and rusty patches near the plughole, in pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic.

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Prices in YO62

Our bath repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back

Most customers in YO62 get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

Signs you need bath repair

Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
