Our bath repair service in TN17

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Typical jobs include chips along the edge of the bath and damage beneath the taps, across acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.

  • We leave the room as we found it

Local landmarks in Cranbrook

Our customers here include homes close to The Crown Public House, Crane Valley and Cranbrook School. Nearby too are Congregational Church (within half a mile north) and Cranbrook Church of England Primary School (under half a mile north). Nearby you will also find Sissinghurst Castle (2.5 miles north-east) and Benenden Hospital (3.6 miles east).

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Why repair rather than replace?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is.

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Common problems we fix in TN17

A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Rust spots around the plughole

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Questions from TN17

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Normally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
