Bath Repair in Dungeness

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How we handle bath repair in Dungeness
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped rim or side and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Dungeness: your questions answered
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Normally, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

When to call us in Dungeness
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
The things customers usually mention when they call are:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Chips under the taps
- Deep scratches in acrylic
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- When it can be used again
- Aftercare advice
- Whether they match the colour on site

How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

What affects the price in Dungeness
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Dungeness. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Dungeness, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Have new chips seen to early
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
