Lumley questions
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What we are called out for in Lumley
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Holes from dropped items
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A kit repair that didn’t last
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price covers travel
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
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.

Repairing versus replacing in Lumley
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
What you get with us
- No extra charge for your area
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Work done at your home or business

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- 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
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
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. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
