Bath repair in Mount Pleasant without replacing anything
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the day after. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Common call-outs are for a cracked acrylic bath and snagging damage from a refit, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A steel bath rusted through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.
How it works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes two to three hours for most chips, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice
Your questions about bath repair in Mount Pleasant
Do you cover the whole of East Sussex?
The entire UK, including all of East Sussex. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Are there extra charges for Mount Pleasant?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Do you need bath repair in Mount Pleasant?
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Common reasons people in Mount Pleasant contact us are:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Snagging damage from a refit
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- How the colour is matched
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
