Bath repair in Worstead without replacing anything
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Whether it’s rusty patches near the plughole and impact holes in acrylic, we can help, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Landlord and trade work in Worstead
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. 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 often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips in most cases. The room is left 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 mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair

What else we do in Worstead
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Worstead: your questions answered
Will the repair last?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you work in Worstead?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Worstead. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Worstead?
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 NR28 postcode.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
What we are called out for in Worstead
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A chipped rim or side
- A cracked acrylic bath
Before booking anyone
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- When it can be used again
- Aftercare advice
- Whether a trained technician does the job
