Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Common problems we fix in St Leonards
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Common reasons people in St Leonards contact us are:
- Chips under the taps
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
What your quote should include
- What prep work is covered
- Aftercare advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your BH24 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Should you replace it?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why St Leonards customers choose us

St Leonards: your questions answered
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover St Leonards?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to St Leonards from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Have new chips seen to early
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Landlord and trade work in St Leonards
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
