About our bath repair in Moss End

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can normally use the bath the day after. We are frequently asked to fix damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and chips along the edge of the bath, on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Moss End and across Cheshire West and Chester.

Should you replace it?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Have new chips seen to early

There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Pressed steel enamel

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Moss End. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CW9 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

FAQs for Moss End

Do you hold any accreditations?

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

How invisible is a bath repair?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
