How we handle bath repair in Soho

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. Most baths can be used again the next day. Our technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches and burns and cracks and holes in acrylic baths.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London. Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

Common questions in Soho

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can landlords and businesses in Soho book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for landlords, agents, builders, hotels and homeowners in Soho and across Greater London.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

When can I use it again after the repair?

Usually the same day or the next, depending on the job. We’ll confirm the exact time when we finish.

Do you come to Soho?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Soho. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Signs you need bath repair in Soho

Most bath damage comes from something 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, crack when they flex, often around the taps or the plughole.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
  • Scratches and burns
  • Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
  • Rust spots where the enamel has gone

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • 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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Cast iron enamel

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
