How we handle bath repair in Botesdale Green
We’ve repaired just about every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. Each is repaired in place. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped rim or side and a chip where the taps sit.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Landlord and trade work in Botesdale Green
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Suffolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole bath
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair

- Roll-top & freestanding

Common problems we fix in Botesdale Green
A cracked acrylic bath usually wasn’t supported properly. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage from a refit
Comparing quotes
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Related advice
Botesdale Green: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Usually. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will the repair show?
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.
