Bath repair near Hythe End

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Bath repair in Hythe End without replacing anything

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. If you’re dealing with chips under the taps and chips along the edge of the bath, we can help, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

What we can’t put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

  • Acrylic
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Pressed steel enamel

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Hythe End: your questions answered

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you cover Hythe End?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Hythe End. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is a bath repair permanent?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
