Bath repair at your home in Boldon Colliery
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are chips under the taps and a chipped rim or side.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice
Your questions about bath repair in Boldon Colliery
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How invisible is a bath repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we will tell you what to expect.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Should you replace it?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
