How we handle bath repair in Bawburgh
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. We regularly repair acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and people most frequently call us about rust spots around the plughole and a chip where the taps sit.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Natural light rather than flash
If you are in Bawburgh and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Bawburgh: your questions answered
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Generally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send pictures.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
