About our bath repair in West Norwood
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. If you are dealing with a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?
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 the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Work done at your home or business
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
What affects the price in West Norwood
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire bath
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Have new chips seen to early
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

West Norwood: your questions answered
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Are there extra charges for West Norwood?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
Do you cover West Norwood?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to West Norwood and the rest of Greater London. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
