How we handle bath repair in Norton Canes
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Typical jobs include holes from dropped items and deep scratches in acrylic, across whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

FAQs for Norton Canes
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How much does bath repair cost in Norton Canes?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match

Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Repairing versus replacing in Norton Canes
