Durham questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Bath repair at your home in Durham
You can usually use the bath the next day. A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Our technicians work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted and chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a fitted bath usually means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Do you need bath repair in Durham?
Most bath damage starts with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths crack when they flex, often around the taps or the plughole.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
- Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
- Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
- Rust spots where the enamel has gone

How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. 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.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Durham, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
