Bath repair in High Hesleden, done in place
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. We work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people contact us are a cracked acrylic bath and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Landlord and trade work in High Hesleden
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before booking
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Colour-matched on site

Do you need bath repair in High Hesleden?
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Holes from dropped items
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Snagging damage from a refit
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- If travel is included in the price
- How soon you can use it again

The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Advice
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Your questions about bath repair in High Hesleden
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do you work in High Hesleden?
We do. Technicians travel to High Hesleden from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
