Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
FAQs for Urmston
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
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 price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Do you cover Urmston?
We do. Technicians travel to Urmston from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Should you replace it?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Work done at your home or business
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Same prices wherever you are

Common problems we fix in Urmston
Rust normally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips caused by builders
- Chips under the taps
- A cracked acrylic bath

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
