Trusted bath repair in Arundel

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Bath repair in Arundel, done in place

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. Common call-outs are for rust spots around the plughole and impact holes in acrylic, across cast iron enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Do you need bath repair in Arundel?

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Deep scratches in acrylic

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Pressed steel enamel

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Arundel use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Arundel. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Arundel questions

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Arundel included. Travel is included in the price.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Typically the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will the price change on the day?

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

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.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Normally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
