How we handle bath repair in Capernwray
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are chips caused by builders and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Do you need bath repair in Capernwray?
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Snagging damage from a refit

We do. Repair technicians travel to Capernwray from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
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.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job.

What else we do in Capernwray
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Rinse it down after each bath
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
