Repairing versus replacing in Walwen
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

About our bath repair in Walwen
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are chips under the taps and a cracked acrylic bath.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Questions from Walwen
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Walwen?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CH6 postcode.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Walwen
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Walwen. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Signs you need bath repair in Walwen
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
What your quote should include
- How changes to the job are handled
- If travel is included in the price
- How to care for the finish
- How soon you can use it again
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Most customers in Walwen get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. 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.
What else we do in Walwen
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
