How we handle bath repair in Bent Gate
Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in a single visit. Common call-outs are for rust by the waste and overflow and a kit repair that didn’t last, on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Bent Gate as everywhere else we work.

What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can

Your questions about bath repair in Bent Gate
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
Do you cover the whole of Bury?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Work done at your home or business
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- We leave the room as we found it

What affects the price in Bent Gate
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bent Gate. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
If you’re in Bent Gate and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
