Our bath repair service in L31
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles are not touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and snagging damage from a refit.
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the next day.

For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in L31 as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Sefton and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What affects the price in L31
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to L31. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
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 often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
How the damage happens
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Common reasons people in L31 contact us include:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A chip where the taps sit
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Rust spots around the plughole
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is.

Questions from L31
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
