Bath repair in Bogle, done in place
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are hairline or through cracks in acrylic and a hole punched through by something heavy.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, generally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you are in Bogle and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Do you need bath repair in Bogle?
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips under the taps
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Chips along the edge of the bath
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How the room is protected while they work
- How to care for the finish
What else we do in Bogle
Bogle: your questions answered
How long before I can use the bath?
Generally within a day, depending on the repair.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do you cover the whole of Kent?
All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Should you replace it?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
