Bath repair at your home in Heswall

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the following day. We’re frequently asked to fix scuffs and scratches in the surface and a chipped rim or side, in roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Heswall and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take two to three hours for most chips, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Store metal items away from the bath

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we are called out for in Heswall

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath

How to compare quotes

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

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.

Heswall questions

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Heswall.

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

When can I have a bath again?

Usually the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Why repair rather than replace?

People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Usually it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise 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.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • No need to remove anything
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Read our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Cast iron enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Pressed steel enamel

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job.
