How we handle bath repair in Dunk's Green

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. Common call-outs are for damage beneath the taps and a cracked acrylic bath, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Your questions about bath repair in Dunk's Green

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you cover Dunk's Green?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Dunk's Green and the rest of Kent. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Dunk's Green, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

Common problems we fix in Dunk's Green

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • A cracked acrylic bath

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How your room will be protected
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Rinse it down after each bath

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
