Bath repair in Seahouses, done in place
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. If you’re dealing with damage beneath the taps and chips along the edge of the bath, we can normally put it right, on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel alike.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Seahouses and across Northumberland.

When to call us in Seahouses
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Impact holes in acrylic

What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Seahouses. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Usually it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- No extra charge for your area
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No need to remove anything
Read our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
