Bath repair at your home in Gipton
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the next day. We work on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools and rust spots where the enamel has gone.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Gipton as everywhere else we work. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

Gipton questions
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Usually, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
When can I use it again after the repair?
Usually by the next day, depending on what we’ve done. We’ll confirm the exact time when we finish.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes, usually. The technician needs access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Do you cover Gipton?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Gipton. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- 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.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Signs you need bath repair in Gipton
Nearly all the chips we see comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust once water gets in. Acrylic baths, on the other hand, crack when they flex, often around the taps or the plughole.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
- Rust spots where the enamel has gone
- Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
- Scratches and burns
