Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Moss Side. What changes the price is:
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Bath repair in Moss Side, done in place
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are scratches you can feel with a fingernail and chips along the edge of the bath.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Moss Side and across Lancashire.

When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Your questions about bath repair in Moss Side
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 access behind the panel is important.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Moss Side. Our prices are the same everywhere.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit

- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Holes from dropped items
What to look for in a quote

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
