Bath repair in Eccles without replacing anything
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We work on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are hairline or through cracks in acrylic and chips along the edge of the bath.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Common problems we fix in Eccles
Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
The things customers usually mention when they call are:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A chipped rim or side
- Damage beneath the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How soon you can use it again
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether a trained technician does the job
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Ensure the area is dry

Advice
Eccles questions
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you cover the whole of Salford?
The entire UK, including all of Salford. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Can I fix it myself?
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
