How we handle bath repair in New Grimsby
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. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are chips caused by builders and a cracked acrylic bath.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in New Grimsby use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Your questions about bath repair in New Grimsby
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you work in New Grimsby?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to New Grimsby. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes New Grimsby. Prices don’t change with location.
How do I get a price for bath repair in New Grimsby?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TR24 postcode.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Typically. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
When to call us in New Grimsby
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Chips caused by builders
- A hole punched through by something heavy

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including New Grimsby. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TR24 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one typically means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, 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.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- No extra charge for your area
- A year’s guarantee on all work

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
