Norton: your questions answered

How do I get a price for bath repair in Norton?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Generally the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Do you need bath repair in Norton?

Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

Before you book anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Norton

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Norton use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Norton

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

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
