About our bath repair in Bow Street
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can usually bathe again the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What your bath is made of matters
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
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Bow Street: your questions answered
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How long before I can use the bath?
Generally the next day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow two to three hours for most chips.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- 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 following day.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
