About our bath repair in Dunston
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We’re often asked to fix chips under the taps and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Dunston, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Common problems we fix in Dunston
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Damage beneath the taps
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

The process
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Dunston questions
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you cover Dunston?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Dunston. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Norfolk, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Normally. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Dunston
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Dunston. What changes the price is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NR14 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
