Do you come to Long Newnton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Long Newnton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
About our bath repair in Long Newnton
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Common call-outs are for scuffs and scratches in the surface and rust spots around the plughole, across cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A steel bath rusted through
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Signs you need bath repair in Long Newnton
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A chipped rim or side
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
What to look for in a quote
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
What affects the price in Long Newnton
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Other services in Long Newnton
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
