Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Greater London and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Upton as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
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 without abrasive products.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
Your questions about bath repair in Upton
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Upton?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
When can I have a bath again?
Usually the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- The material
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- One picture of the entire bath
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- 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.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your DA6 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Should you replace it?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why Upton clients choose us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Most jobs done in one visit
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Colour-matched on site

Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips caused by builders
- A chipped rim or side
