Bath repair at your home in M21
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are scuffs and scratches in the surface and chips on the rim or sides.
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- 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.
Cost
Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for M21. The price reflects:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
