About our bath repair in Thurstaston
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. If you’re dealing with snagging damage from a refit and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can typically put it right, on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Store metal items away from the bath
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Thurstaston. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Your questions about bath repair in Thurstaston
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you work in Thurstaston?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Thurstaston and the rest of Wirral. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park

What else we do in Thurstaston
Common problems we fix in Thurstaston
Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, often before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A chip where the taps sit
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips caused by builders
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long it needs to cure
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What preparation is included
Should you replace it?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Thurstaston clients choose us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One visit for most repairs

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thurstaston use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
