DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
About our bath repair in Beswick
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Whether it’s damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, we can normally put it right, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Have new chips seen to early
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Your questions about bath repair in Beswick
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Do you work in Beswick?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Beswick from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Beswick?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Beswick. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What a repair cannot fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What affects the price in Beswick
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
