DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
About our bath repair in Newbiggin
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can normally use the bath the following day. Typical jobs include chips caused by builders and a kit repair that didn’t last, across acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Your questions about bath repair in Newbiggin
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you cover Newbiggin?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Newbiggin for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
When can I have a bath again?
Generally within a day, depending on the repair.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Which areas do you work in?
All of North Yorkshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Repair or replace in Newbiggin?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Generally one visit, start to finish

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
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.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newbiggin use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

When to call us in Newbiggin
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Customers normally contact us about:
- Holes from dropped items
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
Questions to ask before you book
- How changes to the job are handled
- How the room is protected while they work

When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
