Bath repair in Kearsley without replacing anything
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. We are frequently asked to fix impact holes in acrylic and rust spots around the plughole, across cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What else we do in Kearsley
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Kearsley: your questions answered
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Bolton, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
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.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.

Do you need bath repair in Kearsley?
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Common reasons people in Kearsley contact us are:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A chip where the taps sit

What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Should you replace it?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Normally it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Kearsley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- A fixed quote before you book
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
Read our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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 normally the cheaper route.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
