When to call us in Pyecombe
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A chip where the taps sit
- Chips along the edge of the bath
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if they find more damage

What else we do in Pyecombe
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Landlord and trade work in Pyecombe
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace: which is better?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.

- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Advice
Pyecombe: your questions answered
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
