Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. If your bath in Battle is sound, a repair is usually the better choice.
Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

About our bath repair in Battle
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site. Typical jobs include a cracked acrylic bath and holes from dropped items, on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
Most jobs around Battle are in family homes and bungalows. One visit is normally enough, with the bath back in use soon after.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Bath repair around Battle
Landlords with property near Battle station (about 0.6 miles south-east) use us between tenancies, so baths are repaired rather than replaced. In the older streets of Battle, around landmarks like The Parish Church of St Mary, it may still have its original cast iron bath, which is well worth repairing or re-enamelling rather than replacing.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Battle. The price reflects:
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Store metal items away from the bath
There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Battle questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Battle station?
Yes. Send photos and the address, and we’ll quote, and we can arrange access with the tenant if that helps.
Is it worth repairing old baths in a period home in Battle?
In most cases: period pieces can be hard to match if replaced. We will give you an honest view from pictures.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you cover the whole of East Sussex?
We cover the whole UK, including Battle and the rest of East Sussex. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
