How we handle bath repair in Togston
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Typical jobs include rust spots around the plughole and cracks in an acrylic bath, across roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add 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 we are called out for in Togston
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A chip where the taps sit

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Will the repair last?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Generally, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Landlord and trade work in Togston
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.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Togston use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, typically by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NE65 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
