Chesterwood questions
Do you cover the whole of Northumberland?
All of Northumberland, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Should you replace it?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No need to remove anything

What affects the price in Chesterwood
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Chesterwood. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chesterwood use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NE47 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
