Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Bath repair in Longridge without replacing anything
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. We regularly repair acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are rust spots around the plughole and impact holes in acrylic.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Should you replace it?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why book with us

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. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Your questions about bath repair in Longridge
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
When can I have a bath again?
Generally the following day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
