Our bath repair service in NE98
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can generally use the bath the following day. We regularly repair acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are impact holes in acrylic and chips caused by builders.
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- 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.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we’re called out for in NE98
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Holes from dropped items
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A chipped rim or side
- Damage beneath the taps
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A steel bath rusted through
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
