How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Newpound Common. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your RH14 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Signs you need bath repair in Newpound Common
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- A chip where the taps sit
- A chipped rim or side
What to look for in a quote

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

FAQs for Newpound Common
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you come to Newpound Common?
We do. We send a technician to Newpound Common for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newpound Common as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
If you manage property in Newpound Common, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
