The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price

Advice
Bath repair in Greengate without replacing anything
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. We’re frequently asked to fix a cracked acrylic bath and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Greengate and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What affects the price in Greengate
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

Questions from Greengate
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Greengate.
Do you work in Greengate?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Greengate. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Typically, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
Repair or replace in Greengate?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Usually it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

- Damage beneath the taps
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
