Bath Repair for Barnehurst homes
Bath repair in Barnehurst without the cost of replacing. Send us pictures for a fixed price, then book a visit.
- Repairs from £95
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Deep scratches in acrylic
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Bath repair at your home in Barnehurst
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles aren’t touched, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. If you’re dealing with a hole punched through by something heavy and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can help.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

- A chip where the taps sit
- Chips caused by builders
- A hole punched through by something heavy

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A steel bath rusted through
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel

Common questions in Barnehurst
Do you work in Barnehurst?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Barnehurst and the rest of Greater London. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Typically the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What affects the price in Barnehurst
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole bath
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
