Bath repair at your home in Barnardtown
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Typical jobs include snagging damage from a refit and chips under the taps, in acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Barnardtown: your questions answered
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips. We leave the room clean.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
Landlord and trade work in Barnardtown
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Barnardtown use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What we are called out for in Barnardtown
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A steel bath rusted through
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
