We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
What affects the price in Evington
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Evington. The price reflects:
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Evington. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Common problems we fix in Evington
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
Look out for these signs:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Chips on the rim or sides
Questions to ask before you book
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Common questions in Evington
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
