How we handle bath repair in Minster
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the following day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Whether it’s a chipped rim or side and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, 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.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts 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.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

When to call us in Minster
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Look out for any of the following:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips caused by builders
- A kit repair that didn’t last

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Minster questions
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Minster and the rest of Kent. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
