We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the next day.

What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- 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.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Should you replace it?

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Marpleridge. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Work done at your home or business
See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What else we do in Marpleridge
Questions from Marpleridge
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you cover the whole of Stockport?
Everywhere in the UK, Marpleridge included. There is no extra charge for travel.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Marpleridge?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Common problems we fix in Marpleridge
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Damage beneath the taps
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
Questions to ask before booking
- How long it needs to cure
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What prep work is covered
- How the colour is matched

What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
