How we handle bath repair in South Creake
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can normally use the bath the following day. Common call-outs are for a hole punched through by something heavy and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, across roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit

- Make sure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.
South Creake: your questions answered
Do you come to South Creake?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to South Creake and the rest of Norfolk. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
When to call us in South Creake
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Clients usually contact us about:
- Chips under the taps
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
