What else we do in Sulham
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Do you need bath repair in Sulham?
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Clients usually contact us about:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Holes from dropped items

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Sulham questions
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Are there extra charges for Sulham?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you come to Sulham?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Sulham from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Repairing versus replacing in Sulham
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Generally it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material 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.
