About our bath repair in Southburn
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Whether it’s chips caused by builders and chips under the taps, we can help.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

- A steel bath rusted through
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, 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 day after.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Common problems we fix in Southburn
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Chips under the taps

FAQs for Southburn
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Usually. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Do you cover Southburn?
We do. We send a technician to Southburn for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Southburn. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
