Bath repair at your home in Stonegate
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Common call-outs are for snagging damage from a refit and chips on the rim or sides, on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Stonegate. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- The material
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Stonegate. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
If you’re in Stonegate and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What your bath is made of matters
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Questions from Stonegate
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across East Sussex.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TN5 postcode.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Repairing versus replacing in Stonegate
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colour-matched on site

How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
