Do you need bath repair in Crosby?
Nearly all the chips we see comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths, on the other hand, tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, often around the taps or the plughole.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Rust spots where the enamel has gone
- Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
- Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
- Scratches and burns
Questions to ask before you book
- What aftercare is recommended
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How the room is protected while we work
- When it can be used again
Bath repair at your home in Crosby
You can usually use the bath the next day. We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. We work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools and rust spots where the enamel has gone.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

Crosby questions
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
When can I use it again after the repair?
Usually the same day or the next, depending on the job. We’ll tell you the curing time before we leave.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Crosby?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your L23 postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Do you protect the room?
We cover the area with dust sheets and mask nearby surfaces first, and tidy up before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room for the visit, and we’ll agree a time with you.
Repairing versus replacing in Crosby
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
