Bath repair at your home in Wallsend
You can usually use the bath the next day. We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. We work on cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about rust spots where the enamel has gone and damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Wallsend as everywhere else we work. Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, 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
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit.

Do you need bath repair in Wallsend?
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths, on the other hand, tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, often around the taps or the plughole.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Scratches and burns
- Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
- Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
- Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
