How we handle bath repair in Rendham
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site. Typical jobs include a chipped rim or side and rust by the waste and overflow, across acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk.

Your questions about bath repair in Rendham
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Often, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
What we are called out for in Rendham
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Chips under the taps

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rendham use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
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’s the part we put right.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Getting a price is easy: 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 you’re under no obligation.
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Rendham
- Cast iron enamel

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
