Bath repair in Topcroft Street without replacing anything
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, normally in one visit. Our technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage from a refit and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common questions in Topcroft Street
Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?
Across the UK, so Topcroft Street is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Topcroft Street
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.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- 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.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Topcroft Street. The price reflects:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

When to call us in Topcroft Street
A cracked acrylic bath typically wasn’t supported properly. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until the acrylic gives way.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Chips caused by builders
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Damage beneath the taps
What to look for in a quote
- How the colour is matched
- When it can be used again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who turns up on the day
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
