- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Bath repair in Newbold Heath without replacing anything
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Common call-outs are for snagging damage from a refit and deep scratches in acrylic, in roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- No need to remove anything
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- One visit for most repairs

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newbold Heath use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
Common questions in Newbold Heath
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.

How to get a fixed price

- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you are in Newbold Heath and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Do you need bath repair in Newbold Heath?
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A chip where the taps sit
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Holes from dropped items
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
