Bath repair in Holloway, done in place
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. You can usually use the bath the next day. Whether it’s hairline or through cracks in acrylic and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Holloway
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
Every job is a little different, 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
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Holloway, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- 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.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Should you replace it?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. 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, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Holloway questions
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you work in Holloway?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Holloway from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
