About our bath repair in Doleham
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, generally in a single visit. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about chips along the edge of the bath and chips under the taps.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.

For landlords and businesses

Signs you need bath repair in Doleham
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips caused by builders
- Damage beneath the taps
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who turns up on the day
- What protection goes down before work starts
Repair or replace: which is better?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- No extra charge for your area
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- We leave the room as we found it

Common questions in Doleham
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Usually. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of East Sussex. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Other services in Doleham
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- 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.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
What affects the price in Doleham
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
We price from photos 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, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
