Need bath repair in Ram Lane?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

About our bath repair in Ram Lane

You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. If you’re dealing with a cracked acrylic bath and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can help, on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding alike.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Do you need bath repair in Ram Lane?

Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • A kit repair that didn’t last

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  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 next day.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Repairs by material

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Your questions about bath repair in Ram Lane

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Is a bath repair durable?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you cover the whole of Kent?

We cover the entire UK, including Ram Lane and the rest of Kent. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ram Lane

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ram Lane use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repairing versus replacing in Ram Lane

Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
