Bath repair at your home in Walkergate
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. We work on cast iron enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most often call us about cracks and holes in acrylic baths and rust spots where the enamel has gone.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

Repairing versus replacing in Walkergate
Replacing a fitted bath usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Walkergate, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Do you need bath repair in Walkergate?
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, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust once water gets in. Acrylic baths crack when they flex, usually near the taps or the waste.
People usually call us after spotting one of these:
- Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
- Scratches and burns
- Rust spots where the enamel has gone
- Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- How your room will be protected
