Newton Farm questions

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Normally the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

Signs you need bath repair in Newton Farm

A cracked acrylic bath typically wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex until it cracks.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • A chipped rim or side

Comparing quotes

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

Honest limits

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

  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Acrylic
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
