Landlord and trade work in Norwich
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Norwich as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Bath repair in Norwich, done in place
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are a kit repair that didn’t last and rusty patches near the plughole.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
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 what we repair.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Common problems we fix in Norwich
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips on the rim or sides

What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
