Bath repair at your home in Dymchurch
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. Our technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about holes from dropped items and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Dymchurch: your questions answered
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Do you come to Dymchurch?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Dymchurch. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Are there extra charges for Dymchurch?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- 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.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
