Bath repair across KT10: what to expect

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We work on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are cracks in an acrylic bath and rust spots around the plughole.

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

What it costs in KT10

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it.

Questions to ask before booking

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for KT10. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

If you manage property in KT10, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Your questions about bath repair in KT10

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Are there extra charges for KT10?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Most baths can be used the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
