Bath repair in Kemsing without replacing anything
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. We work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are holes from dropped items and chips under the taps.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Signs you need bath repair in Kemsing
Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Chips caused by builders
- Damage beneath the taps
- Rusty patches near the plughole

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
