About bath repair in TN26
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Common call-outs are for a cracked acrylic bath and chips on the rim or sides, in pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

What’s near Hamstreet
Around Hamstreet, we work in homes near Hamstreet Primary Academy, The Dukes Head pub and Church of the Good Shepherd, among other places. Hamstreet has its own railway station: Ham Street station. Further afield, we also cover the area around Brenzett Aeronautical Museum (3.9 miles south) and William Harvey Hospital (5.8 miles north-east). Open spaces near Hamstreet include Orlestone Forest.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
How the damage happens
A cracked acrylic bath usually wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Chips under the taps
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A steel bath rusted through
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TN26 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
TN26 questions
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Normally, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
