Our bath repair service in NN3

Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Common call-outs are for a chipped rim or side and cracks in an acrylic bath, in pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow two to three hours for most chips.

We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
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 apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
Once it has cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

Cost

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

How many areas need work
The material and finish
Doing more than one item at once
Unusual colours or finishes

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A photo taken from further back
Where you are, by postcode
Any details about the material

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Store metal items away from the bath
Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

What we are called out for in NN3

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
Rust spots around the plughole
A hole punched through by something heavy
A chip where the taps sit

NN3 questions

How long does the repair take to cure?

Typically within a day, depending on the repair.

Do you cover the whole of Northamptonshire?

All of Northamptonshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
