About our bath repair in Ellel
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can typically bathe again the next day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. If you’re dealing with scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a cracked acrylic bath, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Signs you need bath repair in Ellel
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Common reasons people in Ellel contact us include:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A chipped rim or side
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Snagging damage from a refit

What else we do in Ellel
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Ellel. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- How many areas need work
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
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.
Common questions in Ellel
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you cover Ellel?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Ellel from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you cover the whole of Lancashire?
Everywhere in the UK, Ellel included. Travel is included in the price.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Usually. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the next day.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Related advice
Should you replace it?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ellel. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
