How we handle bath repair in Newburgh
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. We work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and people most frequently call us about snagging damage from a refit and chips on the rim or sides.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Newburgh and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Common questions in Newburgh
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Are there extra charges for Newburgh?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newburgh use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Common problems we fix in Newburgh

- Damage beneath the taps
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- A chipped rim or side
- Snagging damage from a refit
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
