How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

How we handle bath repair in Duddon Common
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. We are often asked to fix rust by the waste and overflow and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
Common questions in Duddon Common
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Do you cover Duddon Common?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Duddon Common from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
What your bath is made of matters
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.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Do you need bath repair in Duddon Common?
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, often before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- If travel is included in the price
- How your room will be protected
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
