Bath repair at your home in BN1
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are deep scratches in acrylic and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- 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.
Cost
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Local landmarks in Brighton
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Fairlight Primary School, St Martin's Church and Park Crescent pub and the streets around them. Nearby too are Brighton Hove and Sussex Sixth Form College (0.9 miles west), Academy of Creative Training (0.9 miles south) and William Clarke Park (within half a mile east). Brighton has its own railway station: London Road (Brighton) station. Further afield, we also cover the area around Brighton General Hospital (0.7 miles east) and Old Police Cells Museum (1 mile south-west). Not far away are Newmarket Hill and Whitehawk Hill.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Common problems we fix in BN1
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Look out for any of the following:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Snagging damage from a refit
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
FAQs for BN1

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
