Bath repair at your home in NE34
Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are chips caused by builders and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Cost
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Straight answers about what a repair can do

What affects the price in NE34
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- The material
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Rinse it down after each bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Landlord and trade work in NE34
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in NE34 use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
FAQs for NE34
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Typically, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
