How we handle bath repair in Bow
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles are not touched, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are chips caused by builders and damage beneath the taps.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What your bath is made of matters
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.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Your questions about bath repair in Bow
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bow as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What we’re called out for in Bow
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
The things customers typically mention when they call are:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A chip where the taps sit
- Chips caused by builders
- Holes from dropped items

Why repair rather than replace?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Get a quote
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Bow. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For a price in Bow, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
