Bath repair at your home in ME6
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Common call-outs are for an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and chips along the edge of the bath, in acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- 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.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
What you’ll pay
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Local landmarks in Snodland
In Snodland, that means homes near Snodland CofE Primary School, The Monks Head pub and Church of the New Jerusalem and the streets around them. Other local landmarks include The Holmesdale School (under half a mile south) and Holborough Marshes (0.7 miles north-east). There is a railway station in Snodland itself: Snodland station. Nearby you’ll also find Leybourne Castle (1.9 miles south-west) and Medway megaliths (2.8 miles east). Not far away are Burham Down and Blue Bell Hill.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repair or replace?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is.

What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Common problems we fix in ME6
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 most common problems we are called about are:
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A chipped rim or side
ME6: your questions answered
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
What about rust by the waste?
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.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so ME6 is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
