How we handle bath repair in Newnham
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people contact us are rust spots around the plughole and chips on the rim or sides.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Newnham as everywhere else we work.

Common questions in Newnham
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Gloucestershire.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel

What else we do in Newnham
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 typically cheaper.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
What affects the price in Newnham
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Newnham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- 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, usually the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
