How bath repair works in SW1X
We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. Typical jobs include damage beneath the taps and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, in whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.
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 a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For anyone letting property in or around SW1X, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Should you replace it?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you.
What your quote should include

When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
FAQs for SW1X
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you cover the whole of Greater London?
We cover the whole UK, including SW1X and the rest of Greater London. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
