What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Why repair rather than replace?
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Sankey Bridges
A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Chips under the taps
- A kit repair that didn’t last
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is matched
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What happens if they find more damage
- If travel is included in the price
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Common questions in Sankey Bridges
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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 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, and the work is guaranteed.
