Our bath repair service in LA18
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Common call-outs are for an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and holes from dropped items, across pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

Near you in Millom
We visit homes around Millom Infant School, Millom School and St George's Church. There’s a railway station in Millom itself: Millom station. A little further out are Millom Castle (0.8 miles north) and Millom Hospital (under half a mile south-east). For a walk, there’s Hodbarrow Nature Reserve.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Landlords, agents and businesses in LA18
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
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 early repair keeps the cost down.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to LA18. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole bath
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in LA18, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
Questions from LA18
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
How do I get a price for bath repair in LA18?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
