Bath repair in Tortington, done in place
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. Common call-outs are for damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a chipped rim or side, across pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Tortington and across West Sussex.

What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
When to call us in Tortington
Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
What your quote should include
- How to look after the finish
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

- Whether they match the colour on site
Repair or replace in Tortington?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Tortington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Tortington: your questions answered
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Are there extra charges for Tortington?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you work in Tortington?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Tortington. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage.
- 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.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure 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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
