Landlords, agents and businesses in Sprowston
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around Sprowston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Holes from dropped items
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips caused by builders

Why repair rather than replace?
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. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Why book with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- One visit for most repairs

Sprowston questions
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Sprowston?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
