Landlord and trade work in High Cross
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How we handle bath repair in High Cross
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. Whether it’s deep scratches in acrylic and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel alike.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

What else we do in High Cross
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for High Cross. What changes the price is:
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Have new chips seen to early
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
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 it pays to deal with it early.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Signs you need bath repair in High Cross
Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
People generally call us when they notice something like this:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Holes from dropped items
Questions to ask before booking
- Who will actually do the work
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether they match the colour on site
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
