FAQs for Stocker's Head
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

How we handle bath repair in Stocker's Head
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. 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. Typical jobs include scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a hole punched through by something heavy, in pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Common problems we fix in Stocker's Head
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A cracked acrylic bath

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, 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.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kent and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
