Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
About our bath repair in Little Glemham
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 fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are deep scratches in acrylic and chips caused by builders.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Little Glemham
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
How the visit works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes two to three hours for most chips, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Little Glemham questions
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Will the repair last?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Are there extra charges for Little Glemham?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Little Glemham?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your IP13 postcode.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
What affects the price in Little Glemham
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Little Glemham. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For a price in Little Glemham, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
