What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can

For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Cranage, 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’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole bath
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Questions from Cranage
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you cover Cranage?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Cranage from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
