Bath repair at your home in BN10
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about rusty patches near the plughole and chips caused by builders.
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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 apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Cost
Our bath repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Near you in Peacehaven
We visit homes around Ascension Church, Peacehaven Community School and Peacehaven Heights Primary School and the streets around them. For rail, the closest station is Newhaven Town station, about 2.1 miles east. Other landmarks nearby include Planet Earth Museum (2.1 miles east) and Chailey Heritage Marine Hospital (2.9 miles east). Green spaces nearby include Itford Hill and Beacon Hill Local Nature Reserve.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price.
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What aftercare is recommended
- When it can be used again
- What preparation is included
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
How the damage happens
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
People typically call us after spotting something like this:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Impact holes in acrylic
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
BN10: your questions answered
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Often, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
