Bath repair in South Normanton without replacing anything
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in a single visit. If you are dealing with snagging damage from a refit and a hole punched through by something heavy, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Common questions in South Normanton
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Often, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do you cover South Normanton?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to South Normanton and the rest of Derbyshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What we’re called out for in South Normanton
Rust generally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Damage beneath the taps
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
- What aftercare is recommended
- How the colour is matched
- Who will actually do the work
Repairs by material
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 what we repair.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Repair or replace in South Normanton?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Same prices wherever you are
Read our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
If you’re in South Normanton and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
