Bath repair at your home in NN18
Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, typically in a single visit. We’re often asked to fix a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and rusty patches near the plughole, on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- 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.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, typically by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Prices in NN18
Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
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.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Common problems we fix in NN18
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
The things customers normally mention when they call are:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Damage beneath the taps
Questions from NN18
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the next day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
