Repairing versus replacing in Adisham

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Bath repair in Adisham without replacing anything

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can typically use the bath the day after. If you are dealing with hairline or through cracks in acrylic and rust by the waste and overflow, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Store metal items away from the bath

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

Your questions about bath repair in Adisham

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Adisham and the rest of Kent. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you come to Adisham?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Adisham and the rest of Kent. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow two to three hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Signs you need bath repair in Adisham

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, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Common reasons people in Adisham contact us are:

  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Deep scratches in acrylic

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Where you are, by postcode

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
