Bath repair at your home in WN4
Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, generally in a single visit. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are holes from dropped items and cracks in an acrylic bath.
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Cost
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why repair rather than replace?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in WN4 use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
For anyone letting property in or around WN4, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
Common questions in WN4
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Do you cover WN4?
We do. We send a technician to WN4 for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
