Bath repair at your home in NR19

Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, typically in a single visit. Our technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are rusty patches near the plughole and chips caused by builders.

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

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.
Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
Once it has cured, generally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

Pricing in NR19

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What’s near Dereham

In Dereham, that means homes near Church of St Nicholas, Grove House Infant and Nursery School and Scarning Fen and the streets around them. Nearby too are Dereham Sixth Form College (0.5 miles north-east) and The Romany Rye pub (less than half a mile north). Well-known places in the area include Morley Castle (3.8 miles north-east) and Bishop Bonner's Cottage Museum (less than half a mile north-west). For a walk, there is Hoe Rough.

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 typically the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Why repair rather than replace?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

How much damage there is
Whether we combine several jobs
The type of damage
The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for NR19. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

Where you are, by postcode
What it’s made of, if you know
One picture of the entire bath
Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

NR19 questions

Do you work in NR19?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to NR19 for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

Will the repair show?

The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
