Rusty chip next to a bath plughole, before and after repair

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • A steel bath rusted through

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Roll-top & freestanding

What affects the price in Netherwitton

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Netherwitton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why Netherwitton clients choose us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Everything repaired in place

Landlord and trade work in Netherwitton

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Northumberland and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Questions from Netherwitton

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you work in Netherwitton?

Are there extra charges for Netherwitton?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

When to call us in Netherwitton

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
