When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What affects the price in Heapham
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Heapham as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Do you need bath repair in Heapham?
Rust normally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
People typically call us when they notice something like this:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Damage beneath the taps
- Chips caused by builders

Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow two to three hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
