Questions from Aldingbourne
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across West Sussex.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Usually. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Bath repair in Aldingbourne without replacing anything
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We regularly repair acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the rim or sides and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

What we are called out for in Aldingbourne
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A cracked acrylic bath
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How to care for the finish
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
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.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
