Bath repair at your home in West Green

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most often call us about damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a chip where the taps sit.

Around West Green, you’ll mostly find houses and bungalows. Bath repair keeps a sound bath in use without a refit.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

West Green questions

I let a flat near Crawley station. Can you help between tenants?

Yes, rental work is a big part of what we do.

Can you restore the original baths in an older house in West Green?

Normally, yes. Older baths are frequently worth repairing rather than replacing. Photos let us tell you what we would recommend.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Usually. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of West Sussex. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

Will I be able to see the repair?

On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one typically means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. For a home around West Green where the bath is sound, replacing it is rarely worth the cost and disruption.

Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
Rinse it down after each bath
Do not leave a fresh chip for long
Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for West Green. What changes the price is:

Doing more than one item at once
The material and finish
Access to the area
What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for West Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
One picture of the whole bath
Something in shot to show the size
The material, if you know it

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in West Green, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

When to call us in West Green

Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, often before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

Rusty patches near the plughole
Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
Chips along the edge of the bath
An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

For older houses around West Green, near landmarks such as Voice of Deliverance Full Gospel Church of God, an original cast iron or steel bath is worth keeping, and bath repair gives it years more use.
