Bath Repair in Medway

How bath repair works in Medway

A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. We work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are damage beneath the taps and a chipped rim or side.

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  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. We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the day after.

Landlord and trade work in Medway

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Medway use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

What affects the price in Medway

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Medway. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Should you replace it?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is.

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • What prep work is covered
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Questions from Medway

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Do you work in Medway?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Medway for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
