What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Bath repair in Horham without replacing anything
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the following day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. We are frequently asked to fix rusty patches near the plughole and chips under the taps, in roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Horham questions
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Signs you need bath repair in Horham
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A kit repair that didn’t last

Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Horham
For anyone letting property in or around Horham, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Rinse it down after each bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.

How it works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’re 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 fails, we can still put it right.
