Common problems we fix in Woodford
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Chips caused by builders

Bath repair at your home in Woodford
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can generally use the bath the day after. Whether it’s scuffs and scratches in the surface and chips on the rim or sides, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When we’d advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Woodford
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Landlord and trade work in Woodford
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Woodford as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Woodford. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Woodford questions
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the next day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
