Bath repair in North Tolsta, done in place
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most often call us about a kit repair that didn’t last and impact holes in acrylic.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When to call us in North Tolsta
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A chip where the taps sit
Before you book anyone
- What preparation is included

- If travel is included in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Your questions about bath repair in North Tolsta
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.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
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.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Generally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Often, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in North Tolsta
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Landlord and trade work in North Tolsta
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
