Bath chip & crack repair in Highgate, Greater London
Our repair technicians come to Highgate for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A cracked acrylic bath
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Bath repair at your home in Highgate
We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. We regularly repair acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about rusty patches near the plughole and scuffs and scratches in the surface.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Highgate: your questions answered
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover Highgate?
We do. We send a technician to Highgate for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Highgate. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Highgate, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Do you need bath repair in Highgate?
Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chips caused by builders
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A chipped rim or side
What your quote should include
- How changes to the job are handled
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How soon you can use it again
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
