Bath repair in Newmilns, done in place
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. Whether it’s impact holes in acrylic and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, we can help, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Questions from Newmilns
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- 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, normally the day after.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What we are called out for in Newmilns
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A chipped rim or side
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Rust by the waste and overflow
Before you book anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What aftercare is recommended
- How your room will be protected
- If travel is included in the price
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
What affects the price in Newmilns
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
Most customers in Newmilns get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
