Bath repair in Bishopsgate without replacing anything

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can usually bathe again the next day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. Typical jobs include chips under the taps and a kit repair that didn’t last, across whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. Once it has cured, typically by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repairing versus replacing in Bishopsgate

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why Bishopsgate clients choose us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cast iron enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Roll-top & freestanding

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back

For a price in Bishopsgate, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

FAQs for Bishopsgate

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.

How long before I can use the bath?

Generally the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Signs you need bath repair in Bishopsgate

Rust usually starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

Look out for these signs:

  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • When it can be used again
  • What prep work is covered
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
