Bath repair in Pimlico, done in place
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. Our technicians work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are snagging damage from a refit and deep scratches in acrylic.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
Common problems we fix in Pimlico
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A chip where the taps sit
- Impact holes in acrylic
What your quote should include
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How soon you can use it again
- Who will actually do the work

Other services in Pimlico
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
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’s what we repair.
The process
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- 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.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Common questions in Pimlico
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send pictures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Hertfordshire.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
When can I have a bath again?
Generally the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you work in Pimlico?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Pimlico and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What affects the price in Pimlico
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Pimlico. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
