How we handle bath repair in Penge
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Typical jobs include hairline or through cracks in acrylic and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Penge and across Greater London.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Landlord and trade work in Penge
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

FAQs for Penge
Do you come to Penge?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Penge. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Are there extra charges for Penge?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Often, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Penge. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
The process
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes two to three hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access

Advice
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: 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. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A fixed quote before you book
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
