Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Landlord and trade work in Barnsbury
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Barnsbury as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Your questions about bath repair in Barnsbury
When can I have a bath again?
Normally the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Normally. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do you come to Barnsbury?
We do. We send a technician to Barnsbury for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
When to call us in Barnsbury
Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

- Chips on the rim or sides
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Snagging damage from a refit
What your quote should include

What affects the price in Barnsbury
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
