Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Denton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What we are called out for in Denton
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Chips caused by builders
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A kit repair that didn’t last

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding

Landlords, agents and businesses in Denton
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Denton questions
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do you work in Denton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Denton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How long before I can use the bath?
Usually the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Rinse it down after each bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
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. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
