Bath repair at your home in Bosham Hoe
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Whether it’s rust by the waste and overflow and chips caused by builders, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Bosham Hoe and across West Sussex.

Common questions in Bosham Hoe
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
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 a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Will the repair last?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
What we’re called out for in Bosham Hoe
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Impact holes in acrylic
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How to look after the finish
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bosham Hoe as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
For anyone letting property in or around Bosham Hoe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take two to three hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
