Bath repair at your home in South Walsham
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, usually in a single visit. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and chips caused by builders.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Common questions in South Walsham
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you come to South Walsham?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to South Walsham and the rest of Norfolk. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Are there extra charges for South Walsham?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Is a bath repair permanent?

When to call us in South Walsham
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A chip where the taps sit
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What protection goes down before work starts
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Why repair rather than replace?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Landlord and trade work in South Walsham
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around South Walsham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- 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 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.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
