How we handle bath repair in Lower Haysden
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. If you are dealing with scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can help.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Lower Haysden questions
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Do you cover the entire of Kent?
All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes two to three hours for most chips, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Related advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Signs you need bath repair in Lower Haysden
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until it cracks.
