Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your LA20 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Questions from Broughton in Furness
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Broughton in Furness?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LA20 postcode.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
When to call us in Broughton in Furness
Rust typically starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A chipped rim or side
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Rust spots around the plughole
What your quote should include
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether a trained technician does the job
