About our bath repair in Moses Gate
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about deep scratches in acrylic and damage beneath the taps.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bolton.

When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the next day.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
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.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
