What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
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.
Bath repair at your home in Newtonhill
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Whether it’s a cracked acrylic bath and holes from dropped items, we can generally put it right.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
For landlords and businesses
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.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Your questions about bath repair in Newtonhill
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your AB39 postcode.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Do you cover the entire of Aberdeenshire?
We cover the entire UK, including Newtonhill and the rest of Aberdeenshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Signs you need bath repair in Newtonhill
A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Damage beneath the taps
- Snagging damage from a refit
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Aftercare advice
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Store metal items away from the bath
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Repair or replace in Newtonhill?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Why Newtonhill customers choose us
- One price list for the entire UK
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- No need to remove anything

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole bath
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
