Common problems we fix in Burnham Overy Staithe
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Snagging damage from a refit

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

What else we do in Burnham Overy Staithe
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Burnham Overy Staithe questions
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is a bath repair permanent?
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’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you cover Burnham Overy Staithe?
We do. We send a technician to Burnham Overy Staithe for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
