Bath chip & crack repair in Arnos Grove, Greater London
Bath repair in and around Arnos Grove: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Rusty patches near the plughole
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
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.
Bath repair in Arnos Grove without replacing anything
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. Whether it’s scratches you can feel with a fingernail and rusty patches near the plughole, we can help, on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Arnos Grove questions
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you work in Arnos Grove?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Arnos Grove from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

Do you need bath repair in Arnos Grove?
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Damage beneath the taps

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
