Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath

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

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Stalisfield. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow two to three hours for most chips, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  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. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  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 following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Do you work in Stalisfield?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Stalisfield and the rest of Kent. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is a bath repair durable?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Typically the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

If you manage property in Stalisfield, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Do you need bath repair in Stalisfield?

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until it cracks.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Deep scratches in acrylic

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What prep work is covered
