About bath repair in LL12

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We work on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about a chip where the taps sit and holes from dropped items.

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

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 it pays to deal with it early.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around LL12, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

What affects the price in LL12

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole bath

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in LL12, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Are there extra charges for LL12?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What happens next?

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
