Whether it’s a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and chips along the edge of the bath, we can help, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel alike.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cambridgeshire.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Signs you need bath repair in Northstowe
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
The things customers usually mention when they call are:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Damage beneath the taps
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Impact holes in acrylic
Questions to ask before you book
- How to care for the finish
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
- If travel is included in the price
Common questions in Northstowe
How much does bath repair cost in Northstowe?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your CB24 postcode.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the entire bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
Most clients in Northstowe get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Why book with us
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One price list for the entire UK
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cambridgeshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
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.
