How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
There is nothing special to do after a repair. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
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.
About our bath repair in Ardleigh Green
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Our technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and damage beneath the taps.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Your questions about bath repair in Ardleigh Green
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Ardleigh Green.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Ardleigh Green, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Ardleigh Green. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Same prices wherever you are
