Bath Repair for Earlham homes
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths in Earlham, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Damage beneath the taps
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Bath repair in Earlham, done in place
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are cracks in an acrylic bath and impact holes in acrylic.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What affects the price in Earlham
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Earlham. What changes the price is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you are in Earlham and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, and the work is guaranteed.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Your questions about bath repair in Earlham
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Are there extra charges for Earlham?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Earlham
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Earlham use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
