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. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- 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.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Advice
How we handle bath repair in St Helens
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. Our technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools and cracks and holes in acrylic baths.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in St Helens. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Do you need bath repair in St Helens?
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron 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:
- Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
- Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
- Scratches and burns
- Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools

Honest limits
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 before you book.

Questions from St Helens
Will you leave a mess?
We cover the area with dust sheets and mask nearby surfaces before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes, usually. We need access to the room for the visit, and we’ll agree a time with you.

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your WA9 postcode, and we’ll reply with the price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Can landlords and businesses in St Helens book you?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in St Helens and the surrounding area.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
