FAQs for Gateacre
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Do you protect the room?
We cover the area with dust sheets and mask nearby surfaces first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you come to Gateacre?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Gateacre and the rest of Liverpool. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
How much does bath repair cost in Gateacre?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode, and we’ll reply with the price.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes, usually. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Bath repair in Gateacre without replacing anything
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the next day. We work on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most often call us about cracks and holes in acrylic baths and chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

What a repair can’t fix
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

How the visit works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price

Advice
Signs you need bath repair in Gateacre
Most bath damage starts 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 will start to rust once water gets in. Acrylic baths, on the other hand, crack when they flex, often around the taps or the plughole.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
- Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
- Scratches and burns
- Rust spots where the enamel has gone

Why repair rather than replace?

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit.
