- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- A cracked acrylic bath
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
Bath repair in Shotwick without replacing anything
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles aren’t touched, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. Whether it’s hairline or through cracks in acrylic and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, we can help.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
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. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Shotwick
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cheshire West and Chester and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A fixed quote before booking
- Most jobs done in one visit

Shotwick questions
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Often, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Shotwick. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you work in Shotwick?
We do. Technicians travel to Shotwick from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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 tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
