About our bath repair in Bluntisham
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the following day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. We’re frequently asked to fix rust by the waste and overflow and chips under the taps, across roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Bluntisham questions
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
What we’re called out for in Bluntisham
Rust generally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting

Why repair rather than replace?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Generally it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A steel bath rusted through
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PE28 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
