Bath repair in Hope Green, done in place
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We work on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about scratches you can feel with a fingernail and chips on the rim or sides.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cheshire East.

What else we do in Hope Green
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Normally it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
Questions from Hope Green
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How much does bath repair cost in Hope Green?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Signs you need bath repair in Hope Green
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A chipped rim or side
What to look for in a quote
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How to care for the finish
- Who will actually do the work
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
