Bath repair at your home in Mount Pleasant
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the following day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Our repair technicians work on cast iron enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about chips caused by builders and deep scratches in acrylic.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
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 the part we put right.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Store metal items 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.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Questions from Mount Pleasant
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you cover the entire of County Durham?
We cover the entire UK, including Mount Pleasant and the rest of County Durham. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
When to call us in Mount Pleasant
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Damage beneath the taps

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Mount Pleasant. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back
- 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 reply with a fixed quote.
What we can’t put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

- Whirlpool & spa baths
