Advice
How we handle bath repair in Old Trafford
You can usually use the bath the next day. 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 and the tiles around it. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about cracks and holes in acrylic baths and scratches and burns.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater Manchester. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’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.

Signs you need bath repair in Old Trafford
Nearly all the chips we see starts with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust once water gets in. Acrylic baths, on the other hand, crack when they flex, usually near the taps or the waste.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
- Scratches and burns
- Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
- Rust spots where the enamel has gone

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
