Bath repair in Stonehill Green, done in place
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can normally bathe again the following day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about holes from dropped items and a chipped rim or side.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
FAQs for Stonehill Green
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you work in Stonehill Green?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Stonehill Green from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Frequently, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Signs you need bath repair in Stonehill Green
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
The things customers typically mention when they call are:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips caused by builders
- A chip where the taps sit
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What preparation is included
- Whether the price covers travel
- When it can be used again
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Stonehill Green. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- No extra charge for your area

What else we do in Stonehill Green
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes two to three hours for most chips in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
