Bath repair in Hepscott, done in place
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the next day. If you are dealing with hairline or through cracks in acrylic and chips caused by builders, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Work for landlords and builders

Questions from Hepscott
How do I get a price for bath repair in Hepscott?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- Colour-matched on site
- One visit for most repairs
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Rooms protected and left tidy

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NE61 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
