How we handle bath repair in Blaston
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. Common call-outs are for snagging damage from a refit and chips along the edge of the bath, on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Blaston: your questions answered
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Northamptonshire.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
Do you need bath repair in Blaston?
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rust spots around the plughole
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
