Bath repair in Aylesford without replacing anything
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can generally use the bath the day after. We work on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are hairline or through cracks in acrylic and a kit repair that didn’t last.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Aylesford. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Everything repaired in place
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Rooms protected and left tidy

What a repair cannot fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Do you need bath repair in Aylesford?
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Chips on the rim or sides
Before booking anyone
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- If travel is included in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
What affects the price in Aylesford
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most customers in Aylesford get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

FAQs for Aylesford
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
Get a quote
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Aylesford as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
