Bath repair for Lullingstone homes

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.

Bath repair at your home in Lullingstone

Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We’re often asked to fix deep scratches in acrylic and chips along the edge of the bath, in whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and cast iron enamel.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Lullingstone and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Lullingstone, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lullingstone as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

FAQs for Lullingstone

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What happens next?

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

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will I be able to see the repair?

The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

Signs you need bath repair in Lullingstone

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Common reasons people in Lullingstone contact us include:

  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Impact holes in acrylic

10 questions to ask before booking

What affects the price in Lullingstone

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repairing versus replacing in Lullingstone

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
