Bath Repair for Aldgate homes
Our technicians come to Aldgate for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take two to three hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage

Advice
About our bath repair in Aldgate
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. Typical jobs include snagging damage from a refit and a chip where the taps sit, across cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Common problems we fix in Aldgate
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Damage beneath the taps
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Rusty patches near the plughole
Questions to ask before you book

Your questions about bath repair in Aldgate
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

A repair is not right for every job, including:

Repair or replace: which is better?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
