Bath repair at your home in Dollis Hill
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath.

What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- 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.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
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 price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Most customers in Dollis Hill get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Dollis Hill questions
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
