Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes is repaired in place. There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are hairline or through cracks in acrylic and rust by the waste and overflow.

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Your questions about bath repair in Plenmeller
Do you cover the whole of Northumberland?
All of Northumberland, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a fitted bath normally means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Common problems we fix in Plenmeller
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A chipped rim or side
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips caused by builders
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- If travel is included in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether they match the colour on site
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Plenmeller, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For anyone letting property in or around Plenmeller, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
