Bath repair across CW8: what to expect
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and people most frequently call us about scuffs and scratches in the surface and chips caused by builders.
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Cost
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us

What’s near Northwich
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Verdein Park, The Penny Black pub and Charles Darwin Community Primary School and the streets around them. Other local landmarks include St Nicholas Catholic High School (0.9 miles south-west) and Holy Trinity Church (less than half a mile south-east). The nearest railway station is Greenbank station, roughly 0.8 miles south-west. Other landmarks nearby include Victoria Infirmary (less than half a mile north). Not far away are Neumann's Flash and Marbury Reedbed Nature Reserve.
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
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 it pays to deal with it early.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
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’s the part we put right.
Repairing versus replacing
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Generally it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement.
What your quote should include
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How long it needs to cure
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Questions from CW8
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Do you cover CW8?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to CW8 for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are there extra charges for CW8?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
