Bath chip & crack repair in Woodlands, Kent
Local bath repair for Woodlands: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips along the edge of the bath
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Bath repair at your home in Woodlands
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Whether it’s a cracked acrylic bath and scuffs and scratches in the surface, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What a repair can’t fix

- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

What we’re called out for in Woodlands
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Holes from dropped items

The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes two to three hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

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

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Woodlands. The price comes down to:
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Your questions about bath repair in Woodlands
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
