Landlords, agents and businesses in Mill Hill
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
How we handle bath repair in Mill Hill
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people contact us are chips under the taps and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Mill Hill
Rust generally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
People usually call us when they notice something like this:
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A hole punched through by something heavy

Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Mill Hill questions
What about rust by the waste?
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 a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this frequently. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
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.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A steel bath rusted through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Mill Hill
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
Repair or replace in Mill Hill?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
