About our bath repair in Heigham
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. Typical jobs include chips along the edge of the bath and holes from dropped items, in pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Heigham
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we are called out for in Heigham
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A kit repair that didn’t last

When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take two to three hours for most chips, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you are in Heigham and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
FAQs for Heigham
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the next day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
