DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
How we handle bath repair in Newton Reigny
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. If you are dealing with a hole punched through by something heavy and deep scratches in acrylic, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What else we do in Newton Reigny
The process
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
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.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Signs you need bath repair in Newton Reigny
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Holes from dropped items
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Damage beneath the taps

Newton Reigny questions
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Usually. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Do you cover the whole of Cumbria?
We cover the entire UK, including Newton Reigny and the rest of Cumbria. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Newton Reigny
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Repairing versus replacing in Newton Reigny
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
