About our bath repair in Manton
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the following day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We are frequently asked to fix an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and snagging damage from a refit, in roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Manton and across Nottinghamshire.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Manton: your questions answered
Do you work in Manton?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Manton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
How long before I can use the bath?
Usually the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What affects the price in Manton
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic

- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A chipped rim or side
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- A hole punched through by something heavy

- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Landlords, agents and businesses in Manton
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.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Manton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- 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.
- 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
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
