How we handle bath repair in Bosham

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the following day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are chips under the taps and scuffs and scratches in the surface.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repairing versus replacing in Bosham

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • No need to remove anything
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

What we’re called out for in Bosham

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • Impact holes in acrylic

What to look for in a quote

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Aftercare advice
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Your questions about bath repair in Bosham

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

How long before I can use the bath?

Usually the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
