Common problems we fix in North Kensington

- Rust spots around the plughole

Bath repair in North Kensington without replacing anything
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. We work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are chips along the edge of the bath and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes two to three hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- 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.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
What affects the price in North Kensington
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in North Kensington use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Greater London and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Common questions in North Kensington
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do you work in North Kensington?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to North Kensington and the rest of Greater London. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.
Do you repair coloured baths?

When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
