Our bath repair service in L19
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. Common call-outs are for an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and chips on the rim or sides, across pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.
What it costs in L19
Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Why repair rather than replace?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes.
Questions to ask before booking
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Common questions in L19
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Do you cover the whole of Liverpool?
Everywhere in the UK, L19 included. There is no extra charge for travel.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
