How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Bath repair in Hoe without replacing anything
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. If you are dealing with chips under the taps and rust spots around the plughole, we can help.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hoe as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

What we are called out for in Hoe
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A hole punched through by something heavy
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- When it can be used again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Have new chips seen to early
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
