About our bath repair in Nadderwater
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Typical jobs include deep scratches in acrylic and chips on the rim or sides, across roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

- Colour-matched on site

FAQs for Nadderwater
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Do you need bath repair in Nadderwater?
Rust normally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Chips under the taps
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
What to look for in a quote
- How your room will be protected
- What preparation is included
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What aftercare is recommended
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
