How we handle bath repair in Durlock
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Typical jobs include a kit repair that didn’t last and cracks in an acrylic bath, across whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What affects the price in Durlock
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Durlock. The price reflects:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- One picture of the entire bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CT3 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
When to call us in Durlock
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Snagging damage from a refit
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Holes from dropped items
Before you book anyone

For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
FAQs for Durlock
Do you work in Durlock?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Durlock. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you cover the entire of Kent?
We cover the whole UK, including Durlock and the rest of Kent. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Often, 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 picture.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
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 typically the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
