Bath repair at your home in Greater Manchester

Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. Typical jobs include a chipped rim or side and impact holes in acrylic, in pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take two to three hours for most chips, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

We protect the bath and the floor around it.
We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the day after.

Cost

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Signs you need bath repair

Rust generally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

The most common problems we are called about are:

Cracks in an acrylic bath
Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
A hole punched through by something heavy
A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Should you replace it?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price.

Questions to ask before booking

What prep work is covered
Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
How long it needs to cure
What the guarantee covers, and for how long

What bath repair costs

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

Doing more than one item at once
Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
How many areas need work
What kind of damage it is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

A wider photo showing the entire bath
What it’s made of, if you know
A close-up of the damage, in focus
A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Questions from Greater Manchester

How long does the repair take to cure?

Usually within a day, depending on the repair.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is a bath repair permanent?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
