Bath repair in Dereham, done in place
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Whether it’s rust spots around the plughole and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can help.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Dereham and across Norfolk.

What else we do in Dereham
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Dereham

Should you replace it?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- One price list for the whole UK

- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

How it works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
For a price in Dereham, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Related advice
Do you need bath repair in Dereham?
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Rust spots around the plughole
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Chips caused by builders
