What we are called out for in Lawton Heath End
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, often before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Deep scratches in acrylic
Landlords with property near Alsager station (about 1.1 miles south) use us between tenancies, so baths are repaired rather than replaced.

Common questions in Lawton Heath End
Will you travel to Lawton Heath End?
We do: small places like Lawton Heath End are covered as standard. Tell us if access is tricky.
Is it worth repairing old baths in a period home in Lawton Heath End?
Normally: original pieces are often better made and harder to replace. Send photos and we will advise.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Bath repair around Lawton Heath End
If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as Church of the Good Shepherd, it may still have its original cast iron bath, which is well worth repairing or re-enamelling rather than replacing.

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
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, so it’s always worth repairing.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again. For a rural address like Lawton Heath End, we plan the journey in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring everything needed for the bath repair, so there’s no second trip.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
