Bath repair in Charlton, done in place
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people contact us are damage beneath the taps and chips on the rim or sides.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Repair or replace in Charlton?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Common problems we fix in Charlton
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
Questions to ask before you book
- When it can be used again
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What aftercare is recommended
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Charlton questions
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Charlton and the rest of Surrey. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Charlton, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Charlton
For anyone letting property in or around Charlton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
