Bath repair in Lea Town, done in place
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Typical jobs include a chip where the taps sit and chips caused by builders, across whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Signs you need bath repair in Lea Town
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until it cracks.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Damage beneath the taps

Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why book with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- Colour-matched on site
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- One-year guarantee on every repair

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
A quote takes minutes to ask for: 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.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A steel bath rusted through
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel

- Roll-top & freestanding
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Lea Town: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- 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.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
