Bath repair near Ash Green

Repair or replace in Ash Green?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Bath repair at your home in Ash Green

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles aren’t touched, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. If you are dealing with chips on the rim or sides and a hole punched through by something heavy, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ash Green as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Do you need bath repair in Ash Green?

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being 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.

Look out for these signs:

  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath

Before you book anyone

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Ash Green questions

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is a bath repair durable?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Do you charge for travel?

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

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
