Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.

Repair or replace in Bury's Bank?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Signs you need bath repair in Bury's Bank

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Common reasons people in Bury's Bank contact us include:

  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Impact holes in acrylic

Before booking anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
