Bath repair at your home in Roydon Hamlet
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. 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. Our repair technicians work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are scratches you can feel with a fingernail and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Landlord and trade work in Roydon Hamlet
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Roydon Hamlet use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Essex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Repair or replace in Roydon Hamlet?

Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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.
What affects the price in Roydon Hamlet
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Your questions about bath repair in Roydon Hamlet
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
How much does bath repair cost in Roydon Hamlet?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CM19 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Store metal items away from the bath
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
