Bath Repair in Newfound
Problem with your bath in Newfound? We put it right where it is, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A chipped rim or side
- Rust by the waste and overflow
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
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.
How we handle bath repair in Newfound
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Whether it’s rust by the waste and overflow and chips under the taps, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newfound as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Questions from Newfound
What about rust by the waste?

Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Repairing versus replacing in Newfound
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
