How we handle bath repair in Dallam
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can generally use the bath the next day. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are rust spots around the plughole and a kit repair that didn’t last.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Warrington.

Your questions about bath repair in Dallam
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
When can I have a bath again?
Generally within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Generally. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

What we’re called out for in Dallam
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Look out for any of the following:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the next day.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?

When a repair is not the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
