How bath repair works in E7
We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. We work on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are a chip where the taps sit and rust by the waste and overflow.
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow two to three hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
What it costs in E7
Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Repair or replace?
Replacing a fitted bath normally means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit.
What your quote should include
- What preparation is included
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Aftercare advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
How the damage happens
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Look out for any of the following:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

E7 questions
Do you come to E7?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to E7 for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
