Bath repair at your home in Monk Soham
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles aren’t touched, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. If you are dealing with a chip where the taps sit and rusty patches near the plughole, we can help, on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel alike.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What else we do in Monk Soham
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Common problems we fix in Monk Soham
Rust generally 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.
Common reasons people in Monk Soham contact us include:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A chipped rim or side
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A cracked acrylic bath

What we can’t put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A steel bath rusted through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
