Bath repair in Queen's Park without replacing anything

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can normally use the bath the next day. We are frequently asked to fix holes from dropped items and a cracked acrylic bath, across acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

What we’re called out for in Queen's Park

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Holes from dropped items
  • A chipped rim or side

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Queen's Park: your questions answered

Is a bath repair permanent?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

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.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Do you cover Queen's Park?

We do. We send a technician to Queen's Park for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Often, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Have new chips seen to early

There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Should you replace it?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Queen's Park. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One price list for the whole UK

See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

  • Cast iron enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole bath

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
