Newstreet Lane questions
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Bath repair in Newstreet Lane, done in place
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can generally bathe again the next day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. If you’re dealing with a chip where the taps sit and scuffs and scratches in the surface, we can help, on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Shropshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Newstreet Lane. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- The material
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Have new chips seen to early
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Newstreet Lane. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.

Advice
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
