What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- 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.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- 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 next day.

Landlord and trade work in Udimore
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel

Other services in Udimore
Do you need bath repair in Udimore?
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
The things clients normally mention when they call include:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Chips on the rim or sides
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- How your room will be protected
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Your questions about bath repair in Udimore
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
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 work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
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.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Udimore. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Repairing versus replacing in Udimore
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
