Trusted bath repair in Pendlebury

Bath repair in Pendlebury without replacing anything

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. Our technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools and damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. 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.

Pendlebury questions

Does someone need to be in?

Yes, usually. The technician needs access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Should I repair or replace?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you cover Pendlebury?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Pendlebury. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you protect the room?

We cover the area with dust sheets and mask nearby surfaces before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

When can I use it again after the repair?

Usually the same day or the next, depending on what we’ve done. We’ll tell you the curing time before we leave.

What about rust by the waste?

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

How do I get a price for bath repair in Pendlebury?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode, and we’ll reply with the price.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, 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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. 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.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

When to call us in Pendlebury

Most bath damage starts with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths, on the other hand, crack when they flex, usually near the taps or the waste.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Rust spots where the enamel has gone
  • Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
  • Scratches and burns
  • Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools

Questions to ask before you book

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while we work
  • Aftercare advice
