About our bath repair in Hud Hey

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the next day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Whether it’s a hole punched through by something heavy and a chip where the taps sit, we can generally put it right.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your BB4 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Do you need bath repair in Hud Hey?

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Chips under the taps
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • A cracked acrylic bath

What to look for in a quote

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • When it can be used again
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Store metal items away from the bath

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

Your questions about bath repair in Hud Hey

Is a bath repair durable?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How invisible is a bath repair?

On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Hud Hey and the rest of Lancashire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Roll-top & freestanding

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
