Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Bath repair at your home in Upgate
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. We are frequently asked to fix a kit repair that didn’t last and deep scratches in acrylic, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Rinse it down after each bath
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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.
Landlord and trade work in Upgate
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Upgate use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Common questions in Upgate
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
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.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you come to Upgate?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Upgate for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NR15 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Whirlpool & spa baths
