Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
How we handle bath repair in Sparham
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. Typical jobs include scuffs and scratches in the surface and rust spots around the plughole, across whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Sparham and across Norfolk.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sparham
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Questions from Sparham
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do you work in Sparham?
We do. We send a technician to Sparham for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.
What affects the price in Sparham
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Sparham. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Most clients in Sparham get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Sparham
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
