Bath repair in Isleham without replacing anything
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the following day. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most frequently call us about holes from dropped items and rusty patches near the plughole.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What else we do in Isleham
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What we are called out for in Isleham
Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Chips under the taps

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Isleham: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Normally. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
