How we handle bath repair in Dunkirk
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We are frequently asked to fix scuffs and scratches in the surface and holes from dropped items, across roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
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 the part we put right.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Dunkirk
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dunkirk as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Dunkirk: your questions answered
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Often, if there’s access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Do you cover Dunkirk?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Dunkirk for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Signs you need bath repair in Dunkirk
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Chips caused by builders
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Impact holes in acrylic
Before booking anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How to care for the finish
- Who will actually do the work
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures 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.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
