Your questions about bath repair in Northwood
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Are there extra charges for Northwood?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Do you cover the whole of Greater London?
We cover the whole UK, including Northwood and the rest of Greater London. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
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.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Northwood. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What we’re called out for in Northwood
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Look out for these signs:
- A chipped rim or side
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A chip where the taps sit

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Northwood as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

What else we do in Northwood
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
