Bath repair in Rainford Junction without replacing anything
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can normally use the bath the day after. Whether it’s holes from dropped items and a chipped rim or side, we can help, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in St Helens.

Landlord and trade work in Rainford Junction
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the next day.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Rainford Junction questions
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What we’re called out for in Rainford Junction
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips caused by builders
- Chips on the rim or sides
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- How your room will be protected
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For a price in Rainford Junction, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
