Bath repair at your home in NP19
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. Common call-outs are for rust spots around the plughole and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
What you’ll pay
Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
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.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for NP19. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NP19 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
How the damage happens
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Chips caused by builders
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Questions from NP19
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in NP19.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
