Bath repair at your home in IP25
We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. Each is repaired in place with a one-year guarantee. We work on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about impact holes in acrylic and chips on the rim or sides.
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Cost
Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a price
If you’re in IP25 and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Near you in Watton
Around Watton, we work in homes near Watton Westfield Infant and Nursery School, Wayland Academy Norfolk and The Willow House and the streets around them. Other landmarks nearby include Museum 4 Watton (within half a mile north-west). For a walk, there is Thompson Water and Loch Neaton.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
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.
What affects the price in IP25
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your IP25 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Repairing versus replacing
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it.
Questions to ask before booking
- What aftercare is recommended
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- When it can be used again
Signs you need bath repair
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- A chipped rim or side
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Damage beneath the taps
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
IP25 questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send photos.
How long before I can use the bath?
Typically within a day, depending on the repair.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
