About our bath repair in Murdishaw
Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Our technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage from a refit and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Landlord and trade work in Murdishaw
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park

What we’re called out for in Murdishaw
Rust generally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips along the edge of the bath

Repair or replace: which is better?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Everything repaired in place

Common questions in Murdishaw
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Murdishaw?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Usually the following day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repairs by material
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.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
