Bath Repair near Tynemouth

FAQs for Tynemouth

Do you cover Tynemouth?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Tynemouth. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What guarantee do I get?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

When can I use it again after the repair?

Usually by the next day, depending on the job. We’ll tell you the curing time before we leave.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you protect the room?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking before we start, and clean up when we finish.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

How we handle bath repair in Tynemouth

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 costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Our technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks and holes in acrylic baths and scratches and burns.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

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 morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Repair or replace in Tynemouth?

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Pressed steel enamel

Do you need bath repair in Tynemouth?

Nearly all the chips we see starts with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust once water gets in. Acrylic baths, on the other hand, crack when they flex, usually near the taps or the waste.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Scratches and burns
  • Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
  • Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools

Questions to ask before you book
