About our bath repair in Fulham

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Common call-outs are for chips under the taps and chips on the rim or sides, in roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What we cannot put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

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

Surfaces we repair

  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Whirlpool & spa baths

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

Common questions in Fulham

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Usually, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Is a bath repair permanent?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.

What does bath repair cost?

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

Do you cover the entire of Greater London?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Fulham. Prices don’t change with location.

Do you cover Fulham?

We do. We send a technician to Fulham for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Landlord and trade work in Fulham

If you manage property in Fulham, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Fulham. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting

Our hiring checklist

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Fulham. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
