Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Bath repair at your home in Farringdon
Most baths can be used again the next day. A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most often call us about scratches and burns and damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

Questions from Farringdon
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, and we’ll agree a time with you.
Do you protect the room?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking before we start, and tidy up when we finish.
What guarantee do I get?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you cover Farringdon?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Farringdon. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Farringdon?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EC1V postcode, and we’ll reply with the price.
How soon can I use it again?
Usually the same day or the next, depending on the job. We’ll confirm the exact time when we finish.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Signs you need bath repair in Farringdon
Most bath damage starts with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust once water gets in. Acrylic baths, on the other hand, tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, usually near the taps or the waste.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
- Scratches and burns
- Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
- Rust spots where the enamel has gone

How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- 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.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can
