Trusted bath repair in Egham

The process

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Questions from Egham

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

How much does bath repair cost in Egham?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you cover the whole of Surrey?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

Will the repair show?

On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Egham

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

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.

Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
