Bath repair at your home in West End
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. We are frequently asked to fix damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a cracked acrylic bath, on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

FAQs for West End
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do you work in West End?
We do. We send a technician to West End for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How do I get a price for bath repair in West End?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.
When to call us in West End
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A chipped rim or side
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips caused by builders
- Holes from dropped items

What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including West End. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- 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 day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
If you’re in West End and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
