Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Common questions in Saxtead Little Green
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
