About our bath repair in Houses Hill
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. If you are dealing with an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and a cracked acrylic bath, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Houses Hill. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Have new chips seen to early
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

FAQs for Houses Hill
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Do you work in Houses Hill?
We do. We send a technician to Houses Hill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Are there extra charges for Houses Hill?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
