Bath repair across EC1M: what to expect
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. We work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are chips along the edge of the bath and rust by the waste and overflow.
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
What you’ll pay
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Near you in Blackfriars

For a walk, there is Barnsbury Wood and St. James's Park Lake.
- Local facilities include Bernie Spain Gardens (under half a mile south-west) and County of London (0.6 miles east)
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Landlords, agents and businesses in EC1M
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in EC1M, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
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.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
EC1M: your questions answered
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Greater London, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you come to EC1M?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to EC1M and the rest of Greater London. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Generally. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
