Our technicians come to Colney for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A cracked acrylic bath
How we handle bath repair in Colney
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the day after. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are chips caused by builders and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Colney and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Store metal items away from the bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

What else we do in Colney
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, often before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Look out for these signs:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A cracked acrylic bath
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Colney as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Colney: your questions answered
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Colney and the rest of Norfolk. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to two to three hours for most chips, tidy-up included.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Colney, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
