When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
Most clients in Newent get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know about parking or access

Repair or replace in Newent?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: 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. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- We leave the room as we found it
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

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
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Common problems we fix in Newent
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips under the taps
- Chips caused by builders
- Deep scratches in acrylic
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What aftercare is recommended
- Who will actually do the work
- How changes to the job are handled
Landlord and trade work in Newent
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newent use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Questions from Newent
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Normally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
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.
