How we handle bath repair in Cragbank
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can usually bathe again the following day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We work on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are holes from dropped items and cracks in an acrylic bath.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
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.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
Repair or replace in Cragbank?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Cragbank. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

If you manage property in Cragbank, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes two to three hours for most chips, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price

Your questions about bath repair in Cragbank
How long does the repair take to cure?
Generally the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Lancashire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
