Common questions in Low Moorsley
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Sunderland.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How we handle bath repair in Low Moorsley
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can normally use the bath the day after. Whether it’s a kit repair that didn’t last and damage beneath the taps, we can usually put it right, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you need bath repair in Low Moorsley?
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A cracked acrylic bath

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Low Moorsley
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Rinse it down after each bath
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Low Moorsley, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Low Moorsley
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
