Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about hairline or through cracks in acrylic and deep scratches in acrylic.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Damage beneath the taps

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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’s the part we put right.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Repairing versus replacing in West Grinstead
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Landlord and trade work in West Grinstead

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
