The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after 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.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

About our bath repair in Blaxhall
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. Whether it’s impact holes in acrylic and damage beneath the taps, we can generally put it right, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Blaxhall and across Suffolk.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Landlord and trade work in Blaxhall
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Blaxhall as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
FAQs for Blaxhall
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Common problems we fix in Blaxhall
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Look out for any of the following:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Rust by the waste and overflow
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What preparation is included
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Aftercare advice
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
Most clients in Blaxhall get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
