Bath repair at your home in North Rode
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Common call-outs are for an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and chips under the taps, across acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:

Other services in North Rode
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in North Rode use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cheshire East and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Common problems we fix in North Rode
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
People typically call us when they notice something like this:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What affects the price in North Rode
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to North Rode. The price depends on:
- The material and finish

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
