Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What else we do in Newton
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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 generally the cheaper route.
FAQs for Newton
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Derbyshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
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.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you work in Newton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Newton and the rest of Derbyshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding

How the visit works

- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
