Bath repair in Concord without replacing anything
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. We’re often asked to fix a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and snagging damage from a refit, on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and acrylic.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Landlord and trade work in Concord
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Sunderland and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Concord questions
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
How much does bath repair cost in Concord?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Do you need bath repair in Concord?
Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A kit repair that didn’t last
What to look for in a quote

What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most customers in Concord get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
