Bath repair at your home in Charing Cross
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles are not touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Our repair technicians work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a chip where the taps sit.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Charing Cross and across Greater London.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Charing Cross
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Repair or replace in Charing Cross?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

- No need to remove anything

FAQs for Charing Cross
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Charing Cross?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How long before I can use the bath?
Generally the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What affects the price in Charing Cross
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Charing Cross, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
