How we handle bath repair in New Waltham
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are rust spots around the plughole and chips under the taps.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in New Waltham and across Lincolnshire.

New Waltham: your questions answered
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Are there extra charges for New Waltham?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What we are called out for in New Waltham
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- A chip where the taps sit

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- 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.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for New Waltham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There’s 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 come back to you with a fixed figure.
Landlord and trade work in New Waltham
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.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in New Waltham use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Do not 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.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
