How we handle bath repair in Normans' Bay

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Common call-outs are for scratches you can feel with a fingernail and impact holes in acrylic, across pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Where you are, by postcode

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long

A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Normans' Bay: your questions answered

How invisible is a bath repair?

We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  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. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Normans' Bay

If you manage property in Normans' Bay, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Normans' Bay as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Should you replace it?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Normans' Bay. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colour-matched on site
