About our bath repair in Sun Rising
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Whether it’s snagging damage from a refit and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, we can usually put it right, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Sun Rising
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Sun Rising. The price reflects:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your OX15 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
When to call us in Sun Rising
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Look out for any of the following:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Damage beneath the taps
- A hole punched through by something heavy
Before booking anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the colour is mixed to match

Questions from Sun Rising
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Do you cover Sun Rising?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Sun Rising from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
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, and we will tell you what to expect.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
