Bath repair in Hollinwood without replacing anything
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Typical jobs include deep scratches in acrylic and a chip where the taps sit, on cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Related advice
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
Common questions in Hollinwood
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Hollinwood.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Repair or replace in Hollinwood?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Hollinwood. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Common problems we fix in Hollinwood
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Damage beneath the taps
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A hole punched through by something heavy
What to look for in a quote
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How to care for the finish
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
What affects the price in Hollinwood
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Hollinwood, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
