Bath chip & crack repair in Salle, Norfolk
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths at your home in Salle, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- A chipped rim or side
- Chips under the taps
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
About our bath repair in Salle
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can typically bathe again the day after. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Common call-outs are for cracks in an acrylic bath and scuffs and scratches in the surface, in pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the following day.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Related advice
Your questions about bath repair in Salle
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
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.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
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 we need access under the bath.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Should you replace it?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
