How we handle bath repair in Gadshill
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Whether it’s a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, we can help.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Medway.

Repair or replace in Gadshill?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most customers in Gadshill get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Questions from Gadshill
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Gadshill?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Do you work in Gadshill?
We do. We send a technician to Gadshill for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
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 can start.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

What we’re called out for in Gadshill
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.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Impact holes in acrylic

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to two to three hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
