Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Common problems we fix in Radlett
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Chips under the taps
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Rust by the waste and overflow
Questions to ask before you book
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- When it can be used again
- What happens if they find more damage
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Radlett: your questions answered
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you cover the whole of Hertfordshire?
Across the UK, so Radlett is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work in Radlett?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Radlett and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
