Bath repair in Sound without replacing anything
Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in a single visit. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are chips caused by builders and holes from dropped items.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What else we do in Sound
Common problems we fix in Sound
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Common reasons people in Sound contact us are:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Damage beneath the taps
- A cracked acrylic bath

Where we work around Sound
Sound is about 3 miles south-west of Nantwich, in Cheshire East. Jobs in Sound are booked in like any other job: a fixed quote from photos, and a technician at your door on the day. Sound is one of 254 places in Cheshire East where we work. You can also see our page for Liverpool, about 30 miles away.
We work across the CW5 postcode area. Local streets include Whitchurch Road, Mickley Hall Lane and Heatley Lane, and we cover them all. Neighbouring places we cover include Broomhall Green (1 mile south), Aston by Wrenbury (1 mile south-west), Wrenbury Heath (1 mile west), Aston (1 mile south-west) and Hack Green (1 mile east). We also work in nearby towns such as Crewe (7 miles north-east), Nantwich (3 miles north-east), Middlewich (12 miles north-east), Sandbach (12 miles north-east), Coppenhall (7 miles north-east) and Holmes Chapel (15 miles north-east).
Local landmarks in Sound
Typical jobs here are in homes near Sound and District Primary School. The nearest railway station is Wrenbury station, roughly 1.6 miles west of the centre. Further afield, we also cover the area around Nantwich Workhouse (3.8 miles north-east) and Nantwich Castle (3.1 miles north-east).
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sound as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Sound questions
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we will tell you what to expect.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Will you leave a mess?
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?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a fitted bath generally means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
For a price in Sound, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
