Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kent and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Allington use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Should you replace it?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the area is dry

Common problems we fix in Allington
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
People normally call us after spotting one of these:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A hole punched through by something heavy

What else we do in Allington
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
