Questions from Tunstead
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Norfolk.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you cover Tunstead?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Tunstead and the rest of Norfolk. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Bath repair in Tunstead, done in place
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about chips on the rim or sides and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Tunstead and across Norfolk.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Tunstead. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Common problems we fix in Tunstead
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Damage beneath the taps
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
