Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface

Bath repair in Thames View Estate without replacing anything
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the following day. Typical jobs include holes from dropped items and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, across cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Thames View Estate. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Questions from Thames View Estate
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
How much does bath repair cost in Thames View Estate?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Thames View Estate included. There is no extra charge for travel.
When can I have a bath again?
Generally within a day, depending on the repair.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Thames View Estate
If you manage property in Thames View Estate, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Have new chips seen to early
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
