Bath repair in Heddon-on-the-Wall without replacing anything
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Typical jobs include rust spots around the plughole and cracks in an acrylic bath, across acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What a repair cannot fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
Do you need bath repair in Heddon-on-the-Wall?
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A cracked acrylic bath

What affects the price in Heddon-on-the-Wall
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Heddon-on-the-Wall. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Heddon-on-the-Wall: your questions answered
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will the repair last?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
