What affects the price in Shaw Green
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
About our bath repair in Shaw Green
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Common call-outs are for a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and a cracked acrylic bath, on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire.

What we are called out for in Shaw Green
Rust typically starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A chip where the taps sit
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Snagging damage from a refit
Comparing quotes

- How changes to the job are handled
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.

FAQs for Shaw Green
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Do you cover the whole of Lancashire?
We cover the entire UK, including Shaw Green and the rest of Lancashire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How much does bath repair cost in Shaw Green?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re 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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
