Bath repair in Emstrey, done in place
We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. We regularly repair acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and people most frequently call us about an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and chips along the edge of the bath.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Have new chips seen to early
- Store metal items away from the bath
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on

Should you replace it?
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 the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Emstrey. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- One picture of the entire bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
When to call us in Emstrey
Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Rusty patches near the plughole
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price covers travel
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Common questions in Emstrey
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
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.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
