Local bath repair for Heathfield: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes two to three hours for most chips, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Bath repair in Heathfield, done in place
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. We work on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped rim or side and cracks in an acrylic bath.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Heathfield: your questions answered
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you come to Heathfield?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Heathfield from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Heathfield. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
What affects the price in Heathfield
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
