Bath enamel chip by the waste, filled and colour matched (before and after)

Do you need bath repair in Burgh St Margaret?

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Holes from dropped items

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the colour is matched
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

Your questions about bath repair in Burgh St Margaret

Will I be able to see the repair?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

When can I have a bath again?

Most baths can be used the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you come to Burgh St Margaret?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Burgh St Margaret and the rest of Norfolk. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Burgh St Margaret. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Why repair rather than replace?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Burgh St Margaret. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Repairs by material

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.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
