Bath repair in Warkworth, done in place
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. We’re often asked to fix cracks in an acrylic bath and a hole punched through by something heavy, across whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northumberland.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Warkworth. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
If you are in Warkworth and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we work on in Warkworth

When to call us in Warkworth
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Holes from dropped items
- A chip where the taps sit
Comparing quotes
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Warkworth, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Repairing versus replacing in Warkworth
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colour-matched on site
- No need to remove anything
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
