Before and after: a chipped, rust-stained bath around the plughole

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Moston: your questions answered

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How invisible is a bath repair?

The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

When to call us in Moston

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Chips caused by builders
  • A chipped rim or side
  • A chip where the taps sit

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, usually by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Moston

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Moston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
