How we handle bath repair in Sough
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Typical jobs include a chipped rim or side and scuffs and scratches in the surface, across pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

FAQs for Sough
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Lancashire.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, 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.
What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
What we are called out for in Sough
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Damage beneath the taps
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A hole punched through by something heavy

Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sough. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why Sough clients choose us

When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A steel bath rusted through
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
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.
