Bath chip & crack repair in Egerton, Bolton
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths for homes and businesses in Egerton and across Bolton. Free, fixed quotes from your pictures.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Holes from dropped items
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
About our bath repair in Egerton
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. If you are dealing with scuffs and scratches in the surface and chips caused by builders, we can help.

Repair or replace: which is better?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Same prices wherever you are
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Work done at your home or business

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel

Egerton questions
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
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.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Do you cover Egerton?
We do. We send a technician to Egerton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How much does bath repair cost in Egerton?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes two to three hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- 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 next day.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
