When to call us in Watford Heath
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
People typically call us when they notice one of these:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Holes from dropped items

Bath repair in Watford Heath without replacing anything
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. If you’re dealing with chips caused by builders and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can help.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Watford Heath questions
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Watford Heath is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Generally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Store metal items away from the bath
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Repair or replace in Watford Heath?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. 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.
Why Watford Heath customers choose us

When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
The process
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- 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.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
