Bath repair at your home in Milton Street
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most frequently call us about chips under the taps and cracks in an acrylic bath.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a fitted bath normally means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Milton Street. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Colour-matched on site

- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.

Your questions about bath repair in Milton Street
What areas do you cover?
All of East Sussex, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Normally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you need bath repair in Milton Street?
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
