DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Bath repair at your home in Newton Blossomville
Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in a single visit. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are hairline or through cracks in acrylic and chips along the edge of the bath.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Newton Blossomville and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to two to three hours for most chips, tidy-up included.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
Common problems we fix in Newton Blossomville
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Look out for any of the following:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Damage beneath the taps
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Snagging damage from a refit
What to look for in a quote
- What prep work is covered
- What happens if they find more damage
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether they match the colour on site
Should you replace it?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Newton Blossomville
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newton Blossomville as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
