Bath repair in Boyces Bridge, done in place

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can typically bathe again the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. Typical jobs include holes from dropped items and chips on the rim or sides, on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Why repair rather than replace?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Questions from Boyces Bridge

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Norfolk. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.

Is a bath repair durable?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Boyces Bridge.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.

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 it pays to deal with it early.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PE14 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Do you need bath repair in Boyces Bridge?

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Rust spots around the plughole

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Aftercare advice
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
