What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
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.
Should you replace it?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Usually it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.

- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price

Related advice
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- Rinse it down after each bath
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Do not 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 affects the price in Dean Street
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Common questions in Dean Street
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
How long before I can use the bath?
Typically within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are there extra charges for Dean Street?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you cover the entire of Kent?
All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
