Bath repair at your home in Carnforth
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. Our repair technicians work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lancashire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Carnforth use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- 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.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Look out for these signs:

Common questions in Carnforth
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
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.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Carnforth
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
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.
