Bath repair in Lee Lane without replacing anything
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the day after. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. We’re frequently asked to fix chips caused by builders and damage beneath the taps, in whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lee Lane
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- 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.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Common problems we fix in Lee Lane
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- A cracked acrylic bath

FAQs for Lee Lane
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will the repair last?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

- One visit for most repairs
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
