Why repair rather than replace?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Cloughton Newlands. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Bath repair in Cloughton Newlands without replacing anything
We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are chips caused by builders and rusty patches near the plughole.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
What we are called out for in Cloughton Newlands
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.

FAQs for Cloughton Newlands
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
If you are in Cloughton Newlands and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, tidy-up included.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
