Our technicians work on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are rust by the waste and overflow and chips caused by builders.

Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Tile Hurst. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Tile Hurst, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Sussex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Questions from Tile Hurst
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Are there extra charges for Tile Hurst?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Typically the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What else we do in Tile Hurst
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Tile Hurst. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- The material
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
If you’re in Tile Hurst and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
