Bath chip & crack repair in Henfield, West Sussex
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths at your home in Henfield, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- Holes from dropped items
- Chips caused by builders
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in West Sussex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Bath repair in Henfield, done in place
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We’re often asked to fix a kit repair that didn’t last and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, across whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What affects the price in Henfield
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most clients in Henfield get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the day after.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
Common problems we fix in Henfield
A cracked acrylic bath typically wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- Holes from dropped items
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips under the taps
- Snagging damage from a refit
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if they find more damage
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How long it needs to cure
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Why repair rather than replace?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Typically it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
