Bath repair in Felixstowe without replacing anything
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the next day. We regularly repair acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and rust spots around the plughole.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk.

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Related advice
Do you need bath repair in Felixstowe?
A cracked acrylic bath typically wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex until it cracks.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A chipped rim or side
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips under the taps
- Snagging damage from a refit
Before booking anyone
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Common questions in Felixstowe
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you work in Felixstowe?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Felixstowe from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Repair or replace in Felixstowe?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
