Bath chip & crack repair in Bentley Heath, Greater London
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Bentley Heath. Free, fixed quotes from your pictures.
- Repairs from £95
- A chip where the taps sit
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Have new chips seen to early
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Bath repair in Bentley Heath, done in place
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the following day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. Common call-outs are for chips on the rim or sides and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, across acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Bentley Heath questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bentley Heath. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

- We clean, key and degrease the damage, 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 tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can

Advice
What we are called out for in Bentley Heath
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Impact holes in acrylic
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
Before booking anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Who will actually do the work
Should you replace it?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- A fixed quote before booking
- Same prices wherever you are
- One visit for most repairs
- Nothing taken out or refitted
See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
