Bath repair in Rockingham without replacing anything
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There is no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles are not touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Common call-outs are for rust by the waste and overflow and a kit repair that didn’t last, across acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Ensure the area is dry

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Rockingham
For anyone letting property in or around Rockingham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

When to call us in Rockingham
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Damage beneath the taps

What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Common questions in Rockingham
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
