What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole bath
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NR33 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
How we handle bath repair in Black Street
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Typical jobs include snagging damage from a refit and chips along the edge of the bath, across cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the area is dry

Related advice
Do you need bath repair in Black Street?
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Look out for any of the following:
- Damage beneath the taps
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Rusty patches near the plughole
Comparing quotes
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How long it needs to cure
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Landlords, agents and businesses in Black Street
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Common questions in Black Street
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your NR33 postcode.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
