Your questions about bath repair in North Sheen
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
Should you replace it?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Most jobs done in one visit
- One-year guarantee on every repair

What else we do in North Sheen
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
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.
Do you need bath repair in North Sheen?
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Holes from dropped items
- Rusty patches near the plughole
Before you book anyone
- Whether the price covers travel
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What protection goes down before work starts
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
