Bath repair across EC1A: what to expect

You do not need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. Common call-outs are for a chip where the taps sit and a cracked acrylic bath, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the following day.

What it costs in EC1A

How the damage happens

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, 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.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • A chipped rim or side
  • A kit repair that didn’t last

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for EC1A. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Repairing versus replacing

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is.

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if they find more damage

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

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.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A steel bath rusted through

Questions from EC1A

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you cover EC1A?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to EC1A and the rest of City of London. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so EC1A is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

How much does bath repair cost in EC1A?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
