Bath repair at your home in Rivington
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can typically bathe again the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Typical jobs include scuffs and scratches in the surface and impact holes in acrylic, in cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.

Rivington questions
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rivington as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Signs you need bath repair in Rivington
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Common reasons people in Rivington contact us are:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Aftercare advice
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 will not last.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Get a quote
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- One picture of the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
