Corbridge questions
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Often, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
How we handle bath repair in Corbridge
We’ve 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 with a one-year guarantee. We work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are chips under the taps and a hole punched through by something heavy.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
If you are 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.

For landlords and businesses

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Corbridge. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
Most clients in Corbridge 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.
Materials and what they mean for the 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 repair chips early.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair

What we’re called out for in Corbridge
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A chip where the taps sit
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
