Bath repair in Lytham St Anne's without replacing anything
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. We work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about deep scratches in acrylic and rusty patches near the plughole.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
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 the part we put right.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Lytham St Anne's questions
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
What about rust by the waste?
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.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you work in Lytham St Anne's?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Lytham St Anne's from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

What we are called out for in Lytham St Anne's
Rust typically starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
