How we handle bath repair in Henfield
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are scratches you can feel with a fingernail and chips on the rim or sides.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in South Gloucestershire.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- The material
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Henfield, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a fitted bath usually means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Henfield. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Henfield questions
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Generally within a day, depending on the repair.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Henfield
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Henfield as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
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.
What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

- Scuffs and scratches in the surface

- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Have new chips seen to early
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
