Bath repair in Morton without replacing anything
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Whether it’s scratches you can feel with a fingernail and cracks in an acrylic bath, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What affects the price in Morton
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Morton. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
When to call us in Morton
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until the acrylic gives way.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A kit repair that didn’t last
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What preparation is included
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether the colour is mixed to match

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Common questions in Morton
How long does the repair take to cure?
Usually within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Typically. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price

Advice
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
What you get with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No extra charge for your area
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
