What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair

- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
Why repair rather than replace?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.
What you get with us
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- We leave the room as we found it
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Questions from Lower Kilburn
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

We do. Repair technicians travel to Lower Kilburn from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
