Bath repair in Hamstreet, done in place
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. If you’re dealing with a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and impact holes in acrylic, we can usually put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What else we do in Hamstreet
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- 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 following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Repair or replace in Hamstreet?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What affects the price in Hamstreet
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Hamstreet. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The material, if you know it
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
