Bath repair in Warminghurst, done in place

Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. We are often asked to fix chips caused by builders and holes from dropped items, across whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

Warminghurst questions

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is a bath repair durable?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice

Do you need bath repair in Warminghurst?

Rust generally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

Common reasons people in Warminghurst contact us include:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

Questions to ask before you book

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • When it can be used again
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Warminghurst

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
