Bath repair in Newton Bewley

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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.

Bath repair in Newton Bewley, done in place

We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. Each is repaired in place. Whether it’s rust spots around the plughole and holes from dropped items, we can generally put it right.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.

What affects the price in Newton Bewley

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Newton Bewley. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Newton Bewley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Generally within a day, though it depends on what we have done.

What we are called out for in Newton Bewley

Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Deep scratches in acrylic

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Aftercare advice
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Roll-top & freestanding
