Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
About our bath repair in Bolton-by-Bowland
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. If you’re dealing with snagging damage from a refit and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, we can normally put it right, on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of 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.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Repairing versus replacing in Bolton-by-Bowland
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Bolton-by-Bowland. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

FAQs for Bolton-by-Bowland
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Bolton-by-Bowland.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
