Bath repair in Welling without replacing anything
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Common call-outs are for cracks in an acrylic bath and rusty patches near the plughole, in whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Welling and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Why repair rather than replace?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

- Damage beneath the taps
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Chips caused by builders
What your quote should include
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Welling questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
