How bath repair works in W1D
We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a hole punched through by something heavy and a chipped rim or side.
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the following day.
What it costs in W1D

What affects the price in W1D
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Landlords, agents and businesses in W1D
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
FAQs for W1D
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
