About our bath repair in Little Snoring

Bath repair is our most common job. 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 chips on the rim or sides and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can help, on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.

FAQs for Little Snoring

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Little Snoring and the rest of Norfolk. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Landlord and trade work in Little Snoring

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

What we’re called out for in Little Snoring

Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • A cracked acrylic bath

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Repair or replace in Little Snoring?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Same prices wherever you are

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding
