About our bath repair in Moretonwood
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Whether it’s cracks in an acrylic bath and deep scratches in acrylic, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Common questions in Moretonwood
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Do you come to Moretonwood?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Moretonwood from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Fixed prices from your photos
- One-year guarantee on every repair

- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
