Bath repair at your home in Pimlico
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Common call-outs are for deep scratches in acrylic and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For a price in Pimlico, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How it works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: 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, depending on the damage. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Landlord and trade work in Pimlico
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pimlico as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Pimlico
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pimlico and the surrounding area
Pimlico is about 1 mile east of Brompton, in Greater London. From the centre of Pimlico to the outlying streets, the service is the same: fixed prices, tidy work and a one-year guarantee. We work in 764 places across Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages.
Our visits in SW1P, SW1V and SW1W work the same way as everywhere else we cover. That includes homes on Ponton Road, Wilton Road and Ebury Square and the roads around them. Pimlico is on the A202 and A3212, which makes it straightforward to reach. If you are just outside Pimlico, we cover Victoria (1 mile north-west), Nine Elms (1 mile south-west), Westminster (1 mile north), Millbank (1 mile north) and Vauxhall (1 mile east). Larger places within reach include Kensington (3 miles west), St Pancras (3 miles north), Shoreditch (4 miles north-east), Walthamstow (8 miles north-east), Hoxton (4 miles north-east) and Whitechapel (4 miles north-east).

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Common questions in Pimlico
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you cover Pimlico?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Pimlico from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What about rust by the waste?
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
