Common questions in Burnage
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
How long before I can use the bath?
Typically within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Do you come to Burnage?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Burnage and the rest of Stockport. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Stockport.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Bath repair at your home in Burnage
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage from a refit and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire bath
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.
Why us?
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

When to call us in Burnage
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Chips under the taps
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Deep scratches in acrylic
Questions to ask before booking
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What preparation is included
Landlords, agents and businesses in Burnage
If you manage property in Burnage, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Have new chips seen to early
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
