Bath Repair in West Hackney
Local bath repair for West Hackney: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Bath repair in West Hackney without replacing anything
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We are often asked to fix rust by the waste and overflow and a chipped rim or side, in cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

West Hackney questions
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Landlords, agents and businesses in West Hackney
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Do you need bath repair in West Hackney?
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A chipped rim or side
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
What to look for in a quote
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- When it can be used again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for West Hackney. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one typically means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
