Bath repair at your home in Toftwood

A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Typical jobs include holes from dropped items and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, in acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take two to three hours for most chips, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.

Questions from Toftwood

Are there extra charges for Toftwood?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes, we do this frequently. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Toftwood?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NR19 postcode.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What we’re called out for in Toftwood

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

Before booking anyone

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What preparation is included

Choosing a repair company

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
