Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
How we handle bath repair in Plumley
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. If you’re dealing with snagging damage from a refit and impact holes in acrylic, we can normally put it right, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic alike.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Plumley and across Cheshire East.

How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
When to call us in Plumley
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A chipped rim or side

Should you replace it?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Same prices wherever you are
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
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.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your WA16 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Plumley questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Are there extra charges for Plumley?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
How much does bath repair cost in Plumley?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your WA16 postcode.
Do you come to Plumley?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Plumley for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
