Bath repair in Newton Solney without replacing anything
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Our technicians work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are hairline or through cracks in acrylic and snagging damage from a refit.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Newton Solney
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newton Solney as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What we cannot put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Signs you need bath repair in Newton Solney
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A chip where the taps sit

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Store metal items away from the bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Newton Solney: your questions answered
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
