Trusted bath repair in Cross Gates

Bath repair at your home in Cross Gates

Most baths can be used again the next day. A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are rust spots where the enamel has gone and scratches and burns.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Cross Gates as everywhere else we work. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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.

What we work on

  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding

When to call us in Cross Gates

Most bath damage comes from something 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. Acrylic baths tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, often around the taps or the plughole.

People usually call us after spotting one of these:

  • Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
  • Scratches and burns
  • Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
  • Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted

Questions from Cross Gates

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

How much does bath repair cost in Cross Gates?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode, and we’ll reply with the price.

Do you cover Cross Gates?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Cross Gates. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How soon can I use it again?

Usually by the next day, depending on what we’ve done. We’ll confirm the exact time when we finish.

Should I repair or replace?

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

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access
