How bath repair works in BR8
We’ve repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. Each is repaired in place. We work on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are snagging damage from a refit and impact holes in acrylic.
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
What it costs in BR8
Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Local landmarks in Swanley
Around Swanley, we work in homes near Orchards Academy, St Bartholomew's Catholic Primary School and St Mary the Virgin, among other places. There is a railway station in Swanley itself: Swanley station. Well-known places in the area include London Borough of Bromley Museum (3.2 miles south-west) and Queen Mary's Hospital (3.4 miles north-west). Open spaces near Swanley include The Warren and Summer Hill.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
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
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in BR8 as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents often send us pictures 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.
Common problems we fix in BR8
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Common reasons people in BR8 contact us are:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Rusty patches near the plughole
Should you replace it?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it.
