How we handle bath repair in Jury's Gap

Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, usually in a single visit. Our repair technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about a cracked acrylic bath and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Sussex.

Common problems we fix in Jury's Gap

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Damage beneath the taps

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Questions from Jury's Gap

How much does bath repair cost in Jury's Gap?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Jury's Gap.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Jury's Gap. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

Repairing versus replacing in Jury's Gap

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why Jury's Gap customers choose us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
