Signs you need bath repair in Strand-on-the-Green
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, 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.
Look out for any of the following:
- Chips caused by builders
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Impact holes in acrylic

Bath repair at your home in Strand-on-the-Green
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. Typical jobs include a hole punched through by something heavy and chips along the edge of the bath, in acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Different materials, different repairs
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.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repair or replace in Strand-on-the-Green?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good.

What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
