How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
If you’re in Cuerden and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Questions from Cuerden
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you come to Cuerden?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Cuerden from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Will the repair last?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take two to three hours for most chips.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What else we do in Cuerden
What we are called out for in Cuerden
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Chips caused by builders
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rust by the waste and overflow

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
