Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Brandlesholme. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Bath repair in Brandlesholme without replacing anything
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Whether it’s rust by the waste and overflow and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

What else we do in Brandlesholme
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Common problems we fix in Brandlesholme
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A hole punched through by something heavy

Questions from Brandlesholme
What areas do you cover?
All of Bury, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
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. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Brandlesholme, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one typically means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
