What else we do in Stepney
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Should you replace it?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
See our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What affects the price in Stepney
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Stepney, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Questions from Stepney
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do you cover the whole of Hull?
The whole UK, including all of Hull. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you work in Stepney?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Stepney from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
When can I have a bath again?
Usually the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What we’re called out for in Stepney
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A chipped rim or side
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
