Bath repair in Palmer's Green, done in place
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. We work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and people most often call us about damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Your questions about bath repair in Palmer's Green
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Palmer's Green?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TN12 postcode.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
What affects the price in Palmer's Green
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Store metal items away from the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- 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.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
