About bath repair in NE36
We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. Each is repaired in place with a one-year guarantee. We’re frequently asked to fix scuffs and scratches in the surface and damage beneath the taps, across roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Pricing in NE36
Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for NE36. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Store metal items away from the bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Questions from NE36
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you cover NE36?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to NE36 for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
