Bath repair in Newbury without replacing anything
Repairing baths is what we do most. 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. Common call-outs are for chips under the taps and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wiltshire.

Signs you need bath repair in Newbury
Rust generally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Holes from dropped items
- Chips caused by builders
- Damage beneath the taps

- What happens if they find more damage
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How the colour is matched
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Newbury questions
Do you cover Newbury?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Newbury from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

All of BA12 is covered. Streets in the area include Rowe's Hill, White Street and Gentle Street, and we cover them all. Close by, we cover Horningsham (1 mile west), Chatter Alley (2 miles north), Temple (2 miles north), Maiden Bradley (2 miles south-west) and Cole Hill (2 miles north-west). Within a short drive, we also cover Trowbridge (10 miles north), Westbury (7 miles north-east), Melksham (15 miles north), Warminster (4 miles north-east), Bradford-on-Avon (12 miles north) and Paxcroft Mead (11 miles north).

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Newbury. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Our bath repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- We leave the room as we found it

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Have new chips seen to early
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
