About our bath repair in East Sheen

A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. We’re frequently asked to fix chips under the taps and deep scratches in acrylic, in pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Before and after: a damaged acrylic bath corner repaired in place

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

Common questions in East Sheen

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including East Sheen and the rest of Greater London. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

How much does bath repair cost in East Sheen?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Do you need bath repair in East Sheen?

Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Holes from dropped items

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before booking

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in East Sheen

  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Acrylic

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

  • A year’s guarantee on all work

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Get a quote

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in East Sheen

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in East Sheen as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Greater London and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
