Bath chip & crack repair in Newark-on-Trent, Nottinghamshire

- Repairs from £95
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Chips along the edge of the bath
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
How we handle bath repair in Newark-on-Trent
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can generally use the bath the following day. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are chips along the edge of the bath and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Newark-on-Trent: your questions answered
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you come to Newark-on-Trent?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Newark-on-Trent. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Should you replace it?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- No extra charge for your area
- No need to remove anything

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Have new chips seen to early
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. 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.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

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

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
