How we handle bath repair in Lashenden
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. Common call-outs are for a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and holes from dropped items, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Questions from Lashenden
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you cover Lashenden?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Lashenden and the rest of Kent. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Have new chips seen to early
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
When to call us in Lashenden
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A chip where the taps sit
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Snagging damage from a refit

What affects the price in Lashenden

- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
