Bath repair in Meanwood without replacing anything

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 and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. We work on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools and rust spots where the enamel has gone.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Leeds. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

How the visit works

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 few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Advice

What a repair can’t fix

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

FAQs for Meanwood

Do you come to Meanwood?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Meanwood and the rest of Leeds. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Should I repair or replace?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

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.

Will you leave a mess?

We cover the area with dust sheets and mask nearby surfaces first, and tidy up when we finish.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Meanwood?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.

When can I use it again after the repair?

Usually the same day or the next, depending on what we’ve done. We’ll confirm the exact time when we finish.

Signs you need bath repair in Meanwood

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, usually near the taps or the waste.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Scratches and burns
  • Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
  • Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
  • Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
