What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Bath repair in Hough, done in place
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Typical jobs include snagging damage from a refit and chips under the taps, on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cheshire East.

Hough questions
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
We price from photos 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.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
What we are called out for in Hough
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.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Holes from dropped items
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Deep scratches in acrylic

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Hough. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Hough. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Any details about the material
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CW2 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
