What affects the price in Pegwell

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How many areas need work

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

FAQs for Pegwell

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Pegwell.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Normally. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

How much does bath repair cost in Pegwell?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CT11 postcode.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.

Do you need bath repair in Pegwell?

Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Chips on the rim or sides

What to look for in a quote

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Pegwell

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Have new chips seen to early

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

Repairing versus replacing in Pegwell

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Typically it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
