Bath repair in Georgetown without replacing anything
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the next day. We work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people contact us are chips under the taps and holes from dropped items.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Signs you need bath repair in Georgetown
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
People generally call us when they notice something like this:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A cracked acrylic bath

Repairing versus replacing in Georgetown
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

FAQs for Georgetown
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
