Bath repair for Wroxham homes

About our bath repair in Wroxham

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. We work on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are rust spots around the plughole and deep scratches in acrylic.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

The process

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wroxham

For anyone letting property in or around Wroxham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Wroxham questions

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

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

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

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.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole bath

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

When to call us in Wroxham

Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Rusty patches near the plughole

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before booking

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Wroxham customers choose us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We leave the room as we found it
