We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cheshire East and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
How we handle bath repair in Somerford
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can normally bathe again the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Whether it’s hairline or through cracks in acrylic and holes from dropped items, we can usually put it right, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cheshire East.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
When to call us in Somerford
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Chips under the taps
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Aftercare advice
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the colour is matched
Somerford: your questions answered
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Do you cover the whole of Cheshire East?
Across the UK, so Somerford is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Cheshire East.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Repairing versus replacing in Somerford
Replacing a fitted bath typically means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Colour mixed on the day to match

When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
