Bath repair in New Mill End without replacing anything
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Whether it’s chips under the taps and a chipped rim or side, we can typically put it right.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Luton.

What affects the price in New Mill End
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
We price from pictures 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 will get a fixed figure back.
What we’re called out for in New Mill End
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A chipped rim or side
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A chip where the taps sit
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- When it can be used again
- How the colour is matched
Landlords, agents and businesses in New Mill End
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Repair or replace in New Mill End?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- We leave the room as we found it
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- One visit for most repairs
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
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.
Questions from New Mill End
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you work in New Mill End?
We do. We send a technician to New Mill End for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
