- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

Bath repair in Thorpe on the Hill, done in place

We work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people contact us are impact holes in acrylic and chips caused by builders.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
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.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Thorpe on the Hill: your questions answered
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you cover Thorpe on the Hill?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Thorpe on the Hill from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Common problems we fix in Thorpe on the Hill
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Holes from dropped items
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
