How we handle bath repair in Norton
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. If you’re dealing with a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and holes from dropped items, we can help, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Norton and across Powys.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
Your questions about bath repair in Norton
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Do you cover the entire of Powys?
Across the UK, so Norton is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
When can I have a bath again?
Generally the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- One picture of the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Landlord and trade work in Norton
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What we’re called out for in Norton
Rust typically starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Look out for these signs:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips on the rim or sides
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How soon you can use it again
- What prep work is covered
- Who will actually do the work
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
What your bath is made of matters
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.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
