Do you need bath repair in Northfleet?
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips along the edge of the bath

Bath repair at your home in Northfleet
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the following day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. If you’re dealing with chips on the rim or sides and rust by the waste and overflow, we can typically put it right, on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire bath
- Details of any past repairs
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, tidy-up included.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- 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 following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
