Bath repair in Elsing, done in place
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site. Typical jobs include damage beneath the taps and impact holes in acrylic, across cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Questions from Elsing
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Do you come to Elsing?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Elsing and the rest of Norfolk. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Elsing. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Elsing use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A steel bath rusted through
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What else we do in Elsing
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Get a quote
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Everything repaired in place
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One visit for most repairs
Take a look at our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Rinse it down after each bath
There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.
