Bath repair at your home in NR1
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Common call-outs are for a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and chips along the edge of the bath, across cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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.
What it costs in NR1
Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to NR1. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
If you’re in NR1 and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
Landlord and trade work in NR1
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
For anyone letting property in or around NR1, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
