Bath chip & crack repair in Cross Lanes, Wrexham
Local bath repair for Cross Lanes: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips on the rim or sides
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
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.
Bath repair in Cross Lanes without replacing anything
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and people most frequently call us about damage beneath the taps and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Cross Lanes. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Common problems we fix in Cross Lanes
Rust typically starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A chipped rim or side
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A cracked acrylic bath

Common questions in Cross Lanes
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your LL13 postcode.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cross Lanes use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Wrexham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
