How bath repair works in SM6
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We regularly repair acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you are in SM6 and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Different materials, different repairs
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 feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Repairing versus replacing
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement.

Common problems we fix in SM6
Rust typically starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Common reasons people in SM6 contact us include:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
FAQs for SM6
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Do you cover SM6?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to SM6 and the rest of Greater London. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
