How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry

How we handle bath repair in Heveningham
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Common call-outs are for chips caused by builders and chips on the rim or sides, across acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Work done at your home or business
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Heveningham
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
FAQs for Heveningham
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Heveningham?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your IP19 postcode.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you need bath repair in Heveningham?
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until it cracks.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips on the rim or sides
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Holes from dropped items

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
