How we handle bath repair in Lemington
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles aren’t touched, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. We are frequently asked to fix a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, on cast iron enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Lemington and across Newcastle upon Tyne.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Do you need bath repair in Lemington?
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.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Chips under the taps

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Your questions about bath repair in Lemington
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
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.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
