How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Signs you need bath repair in Walworth
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rust spots around the plughole

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice
Should you replace it?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
What you get with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- No extra charge for your area
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling

FAQs for Walworth
Do you come to Walworth?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Walworth from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Are there extra charges for Walworth?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walworth as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
What affects the price in Walworth
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Walworth. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
