Bath repair in Kersey without replacing anything
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. Whether it’s a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and scuffs and scratches in the surface, we can usually put it right, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kersey
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Suffolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Common problems we fix in Kersey
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips under the taps
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage

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’s the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
FAQs for Kersey
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we will tell you what to expect.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send photos.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Usually, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
How much does bath repair cost in Kersey?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Repair or replace in Kersey?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
