About our bath repair in Mill Corner
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are chips under the taps and rust by the waste and overflow.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Mill Corner. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
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 quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
Signs you need bath repair in Mill Corner
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips caused by builders
- Impact holes in acrylic
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What aftercare is recommended
- How the room is protected while they work
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes two to three hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price

Advice
Landlord and trade work in Mill Corner
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Mill Corner: your questions answered
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
What areas do you cover?
All of East Sussex, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
