Morestead: your questions answered
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Bath repair at your home in Morestead
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are rust spots around the plughole and a cracked acrylic bath.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Signs you need bath repair in Morestead
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Holes from dropped items
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips under the taps
Comparing quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting 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 without visiting.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
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.
Landlord and trade work in Morestead
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Why repair rather than replace?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Usually it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.
