Common questions in Peckham Bush
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Typically within a day, depending on the repair.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
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.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
If you’re in Peckham Bush and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Landlord and trade work in Peckham Bush
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Signs you need bath repair in Peckham Bush
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Damage beneath the taps
- Chips on the rim or sides
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Who turns up on the day
- When it can be used again
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow two to three hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know about parking or access

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good.
