Common questions in New Manchester
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Do you cover New Manchester?
We do. We send a technician to New Manchester for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
How do I get a price for bath repair in New Manchester?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your M28 postcode.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What else we do in New Manchester
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
When to call us in New Manchester
A cracked acrylic bath typically wasn’t supported properly. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A chip where the taps sit
Before you book anyone
- How the colour is matched
- When it can be used again
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the price covers travel
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in New Manchester
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding

Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Same prices wherever you are

Landlord and trade work in New Manchester
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
If you manage property in New Manchester, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- 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.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage

Related advice
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
