About our bath repair in Horningsea
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. If you are dealing with a chipped rim or side and cracks in an acrylic bath, we can typically put it right, on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel alike.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Horningsea
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Horningsea. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole bath
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

What we are called out for in Horningsea
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rust spots around the plughole
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
