Bath repair in Elmbridge without replacing anything
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in a single visit. We’re frequently asked to fix deep scratches in acrylic and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, in whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair

Repair or replace in Elmbridge?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take two to three hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the damage against your photos 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.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your WR9 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Elmbridge. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Questions from Elmbridge
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
