Bath repair at your home in EH4
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, usually in a single visit. Our repair technicians work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks in an acrylic bath and holes from dropped items.
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
What it costs in EH4
Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why customers in EH4 choose us
- Work done at your home or business
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- No need to remove anything

What affects the price in EH4
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Signs you need bath repair
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Deep scratches in acrylic
Repairing versus replacing
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it.
Questions to ask before booking
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- If travel is included in the price
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
EH4 questions
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are there extra charges for EH4?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
