Bath Repair in Wimbledon

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we handle bath repair in Wimbledon

You can usually use the bath the next day. A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. We work on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools and cracks and holes in acrylic baths.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

Repair or replace in Wimbledon?

Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why Wimbledon customers choose us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • A fixed quote before you book

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Take a look at our pricing and bath cost comparison.

When to call us in Wimbledon

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 tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, often around the taps or the plughole.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
  • Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Rust spots where the enamel has gone
  • Scratches and burns

Questions to ask before you book

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • When it can be used again
  • How your room will be protected

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Wimbledon

When can I use it again after the repair?

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

What guarantee do I get?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

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.

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.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and clean up when we finish.

How much does bath repair cost in Wimbledon?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SW19 postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.

How the visit works

When we visit, 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 start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  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. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
