Bath repair in Newtown without replacing anything
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We are frequently asked to fix rust spots around the plughole and a chipped rim or side, on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

When to call us in Newtown
Rust generally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Damage beneath the taps
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A chipped rim or side

What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

FAQs for Newtown
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.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
What affects the price in Newtown
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Newtown. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Newtown. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Newtown, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
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.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
