DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
Common questions in Moston
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you cover Moston?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Moston and the rest of Greater Manchester. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A steel bath rusted through
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a fitted bath normally means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
