Our bath repair service in West Sussex

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can normally use the bath the day after. Common call-outs are for damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a chipped rim or side, across acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

What it costs in West Sussex

Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Repair or replace?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Landlord and trade work in West Sussex

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West Sussex use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in West Sussex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Signs you need bath repair

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

Rusty patches near the plughole
Snagging damage from a refit
Holes from dropped items
Chips along the edge of the bath

What affects the price in West Sussex

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

Doing more than one item at once
The material
Unusual colours or finishes
The size and number of damaged areas

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for West Sussex. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Details of any past repairs
The material, if you know it
A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

West Sussex questions

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

Do you work in West Sussex?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to West Sussex from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

When can I have a bath again?

Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
