If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Bath repair in Newtown 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. We are frequently asked to fix damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Impact holes in acrylic

How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Common questions in Newtown
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
When can I have a bath again?
Typically the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
