Bath repair at your home in Selsey
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There is no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles are not touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. If you’re dealing with chips on the rim or sides and deep scratches in acrylic, we can typically put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.

Should you replace it?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why us?
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- No extra charge for your area

When to call us in Selsey
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A cracked acrylic bath

When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Landlord and trade work in Selsey
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Selsey: your questions answered
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- 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.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know about parking or access
