Bath repair at your home in Lower Rainham
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. Typical jobs include an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and chips along the edge of the bath, across acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

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 come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Do you need bath repair in Lower Rainham?
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Damage beneath the taps
- A chipped rim or side
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How the colour is matched
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lower Rainham use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
If you manage property in Lower Rainham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. 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 quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why us?
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No extra charge for your area
