Bath repair in Crayford, done in place
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. If you’re dealing with rusty patches near the plughole and chips along the edge of the bath, we can generally put it right, on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic alike.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

FAQs for Crayford
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Generally it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What we cannot put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Crayford
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 to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, 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.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire bath
- Where you are, by postcode
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
