About our bath repair in Mount Vernon
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles are not touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are rust by the waste and overflow and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What else we do in Mount Vernon
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair

Questions from Mount Vernon
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
What we are called out for in Mount Vernon

People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Chips under the taps
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Cracks in an acrylic bath

Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Work done at your home or business
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Generally one visit, start to finish

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Rinse it down after each bath
There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
How it works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
