Bath repair in Tytherington, done in place
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can usually use the bath the following day. Typical jobs include a hole punched through by something heavy and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

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. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Cracks in an acrylic bath

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Tytherington. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SK10 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Related advice
Landlord and trade work in Tytherington
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Common questions in Tytherington
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
