Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
How we handle bath repair in North Street
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. We regularly repair acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are chips along the edge of the bath and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in North Street and across Medway.

North Street questions
Do you work in North Street?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to North Street. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in North Street.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How much does bath repair cost in North Street?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What affects the price in North Street
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to North Street. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in North Street, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Common problems we fix in North Street
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Holes from dropped items
- A chipped rim or side
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Snagging damage from a refit
What to look for in a quote
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How to look after the finish
- Who turns up on the day
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park
