About our bath repair in Newton
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. We are frequently asked to fix a chip where the taps sit and chips on the rim or sides, across whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

What else we do in Newton
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding

Common problems we fix in Newton
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Snagging damage from a refit
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Damage beneath the taps

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access

Advice
Questions from Newton
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Tameside.
Do you come to Newton?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Newton and the rest of Tameside. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Landlord and trade work in Newton
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
