Bath repair at your home in West Hampstead
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. You can usually use the bath the next day. We work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools and cracks and holes in acrylic baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in West Hampstead as everywhere else we work. 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.

How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice
Also near West Hampstead
Also in West Hampstead
Do you need bath repair in West Hampstead?
Nearly all the chips we see comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths, on the other hand, tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, often around the taps or the plughole.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
- Scratches and burns
- Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
- Rust spots where the enamel has gone

Questions from West Hampstead
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Usually, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Should I repair or replace?
Usually, 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.
How much does bath repair cost in West Hampstead?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
Can landlords and businesses in West Hampstead book you?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Will you leave a mess?
We cover the area with dust sheets and mask nearby surfaces before we start, and tidy up when we finish.
How soon can I use it again?
Usually the same day or the next, depending on what we’ve done. We’ll tell you the curing time before we leave.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes, usually. We need access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Repair or replace in West Hampstead?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’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
