Bath repair for Horsham homes

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Bath repair at your home in Horsham

Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and impact holes in acrylic.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Horsham and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Questions from Horsham

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Is a bath repair permanent?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Do you work in Horsham?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Horsham. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Normally within a day, depending on the repair.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding

Do you need bath repair in Horsham?

A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until it cracks.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before booking

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Landlord and trade work in Horsham

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

If you manage property in Horsham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
